Seed Savers

The Greenfingers Gang have been collecting seeds from the Edible Gardens; kohlrabi, radishes, turnips, kale, broccoli, artichokes and many more. We'll dry them, pod them and store them to grow in 2020. We might even have enough to sell.




Sunnyhills Sunflowers

Hooray the first of the sunflowers we planted for our honeybees are blooming. Thank you to Room Tekau ma Iwa for doing a great job of watering.
