Food Together has a birthday this week!
It is our 3rd birthday this week and we are celebrating! This is a great achievement from small and uncertain beginnings. We especially thank those customers who have been with us all the way. I personally have been involved right from the start. Even though I was only supposed to help out for a couple of weeks I am still here. My reason? I have met so many great people, volunteers and customers alike, and I wholeheartedly believe in what we are doing,
Last week's birthday month lucky draw winner was Dwayne. He receives a free $15 Community value order. One last chance to win a free $15 order in our birthday month by ordering this week.
The deal of the week is avocado for $1 each.
The $10 Gold orders are expected to contain carrots, onions, half cabbage, bananas and oranges.
The $15 Community Value order carrots, onions, half cabbage, lettuce, bananas, oranges and apples.

Stolen Pot plants
Last week on my return from a few days away a green 33cm shrub tub of petunias was missing from the front of my garage,
Today a 39cm terracotta tub of orange pansies and a 33cm shrub of pansies was mmissing from alongise my driveway in Fairs Road.
I have reported these losses to the police.
Should anyone notice that neighbours suddenly have pots or tubs of flowers, either call the police or ask them to return them. They know where they got them.
