• August’s working bee will be focused on building a shade house for seedling propagation (12pm, Sunday 31 August, next to the BP station – obviously weather permitting) UPDATE: looks like rain for Sunday, so we’ll be starting the shade house on Thursday 28th, same time. If weather clears for Sunday there’s still plenty more to do.
• We intend to coordinate some seed and seedling sharing activity this season, and maybe even have some seedlings for sale for you to purchase & help support the project
• Spade to Spoon t-shirts are coming! These will be available for purchase – details to be confirmed.
• Upcoming workshops with dates to be confirmed include “Basic Screenprinting” (probably late September early October), and “Build a Herb Spiral”. If you’d like to offer a workshop with us, please get in touch and we will see if we can make it happen.

For updates on any of these, and for general enquires, give us a call on 863 7555, or check out our Facebook page
