Herb Spiral - underway


Mr D suggested a herb spiral, as part of a permaculture design process. Our art teacher Cooksley chose the spot, D 8/9 started the digging and John our G.A. is putting his bricky skills to use. Herb spirals can be loose stones or hay bales even, but a tradie likes a challenge!

Seeds of an Idea - growing up


Our hothouse has not only survived the winds of April,(a bit buckled but still standing), the seeds it housed have thrived in it's warmth.
