For more than 40 years the supportive network of Earth Gardeners has been guiding and reflecting the movement away from high- consumption lifestyles. The summer issue is now on sale.

Everyone is welcome between 11am and 12noon each Saturday morning at the Round the Bend Art Shed 6 West Barrack Street, Deloraine. Come swap your surplus home-grown, homemade, chemical free or organic produce, cut flowers, seedlings etc to prevent waste, save money and do your bit to fight climate change by sourcing locally. Meet new people over a bunch of carrots and a cuppa! 1 This is not a market-swapping only, no cash sales please. Tuesday, April 12, 2011.

I love a cup of tea while i am doing my favourite things. Wednesday, 11 February 2015. This summer has been lovely in melbourne. A few less hot northerlies. a few more mid twenties days. Not quite as beastly hot as the last few summers. Mulching my garden with mountains of pea straw has helped my garden cope better too. The butternut pumpkin is prancing around sending its tentacles in all directions and producing lots of fruit. Cause the soul needs food too.
