Plenty of willing workers hoed into garden maintenance in gleaming autumn sunshine at this month's Albert Street working bee... edging, weeding, compost-spreading-tossing-tidying, wormfarm tending, bed clearing, seed planting and gathering, some modest harvesting – and lots of exchanges: greetings, news, questions, concerns, answers, queries, advice, opinions, observations, tips, reflections, laughter, stories, smiles… the perpetual weaving of community fabric.
Gardners and visitors included: Dave, Lindy with Alice, Tia & Jeremy with Jasper & Arden, Pete J, Elizabeth & Anitra (visiting from Campbells Creek… about to set up a community garden there), Clay, Nadika, Jacinta & Cam, Anshar with Sage, Wren & Nia, Alison, Kirsten with Alice, Tracy, Maureen & Stephen, Ian…
NB: A call-out for mulch straw for the next bee! Most welcome if anyone has some to spare....
also autumn leaves can be dropped off at the garden...
