Sunday Working Bee - Seed Sowing

Dave Atkinson from Forrest Hill Community Garden

We’re excited to be hosting ‘Seed Week’ at the community garden this Sunday 💚 With the arrival of spring comes the potential of a booming summer garden - but the seeds must be sown first! Come along and learn the art and science of seed sowing, and sow a punnet of your own to take home and watch grow. We’ll also have wildflower seed bomb making for the kiddos and a seed swap table for the seed addicts amongst us! Come ready to swap and expand your seed library!

And if you didn't know, we host weekly working bees at the garden on Sundays from 2-4pm. See you there.

Help Needed: Peat, Straw, and Moisture Control for Tiger Worms in Castor Bay

Diana from Castor Bay

Hello, neighbors! I’m in Castor Bay and currently caring for my tiger worms. I’ve encountered some moisture issues and am looking for materials like peat, straw, or anything that can help with moisture absorption. I’d also appreciate any advice on preventing clogging in the drainage pipe to ensure proper drainage. If anyone has extra peat, straw, or can share some helpful tips, I’d be really grateful! Thank you so much for your support, especially during the holiday season
Best wishes,
Diana
