16.01.2022 Thanks to Lana Edna Sue and Cheryl for manning the table - lots of interest and brochures given out. I asked people to check the calendar of events for opening hours and what's on over Christmas and January.

15.01.2022 The Bushrangers from Coodanup College were a great help in the garden during their 3 visits after school this term. These guys and their teachers spread mulch, weeded pathways, painted, planted, fertilized and repotted succulents. We had a taste test of herbs and leafy green vegetables and broad beans. There was a sausage sizzle, cooked by the bushranger team and we tried a healthy green smoothie. Many thanks to David from Coodanup College for organising the visits and the community service. Last photo: Lana and Teresa helped me show the bushrangers how to do some work in the garden.

12.01.2022 The "Pumpkin Patch" is looking awesome! This isn't just a novel idea - those jeans make great planters. More photos soon.

11.01.2022 The Pumpkin run is starting to take shape. Huge thanks to the Home School kids for all the work they did filling and planting the Pumpkin garden bed. They also ...worked hard spreading the wood chips. I have finished making the Pumpkin man from old jeans. I really hope others will make one too (hopefully better than mine) to add to the impact. Can't wait to see those pumpkins and squash spreading out and turning this area into a green run. See more

09.01.2022 This is Sophie who has a bunch of Kale to take home planning to make kale chips. Sophie made a planter by recycling an old pallet and planted some strawberries in the community garden.

09.01.2022 We are planting blueberries in pots in the garden as part of our new berry bed area for the community to help us harvest some little homegrown beauties like these. We have strawberries, bush Tucker berries, gooseberries and more to be planted. We are open Saturday mornings 9.30am to 11.30am come visit. All the credit for this crop of blueberries goes to my husband, our grandsons' and my job is to eat them yum.

08.01.2022 THE CHRISTMAS PARTY - The food was awesome. Thanks to everyone for sharing and creating a wonderful Christmas feast. The highlight was opening gifts with a twist. Each person could choose a gift - however, you had to be careful because the next person could steal it! We had one thief who was caught on camera stealing the Honey Pot then making a run for it LOL!
