Murnong Gathering

Our local 10th Murnong Gathering Photos are now on FB. Well, some of them - dance photos still to come; later there will also be a video, not bad for a small group of volunteers!

So relive this very special community event and tag photos as needed/wanted.

Stay tuned also for what Merri Murnong will offer in 2019, a few different things are in store.

Feel very free to get in touch too if you want to get involved with what we do or have great ideas you have energy for.  After 10 years, 2019 will be a year for renewal so we are keen to welcome fresh zest and inputs

Needed

Hi Newlanders,

We have really struggled to think of a Christmas pressie for our youngest who's just content to wander through the garden and pretend to be an egg that hatches into almost any animal.  

Meanwhile, we've just lost all but one of our chooks to Mr Fox...she is looking lonely!

So we had a lightbulb moment too late - we can get fertile eggs locally, but have probably missed the boat to order an incubator online.  Does anyone have one we could borrow?  Please contact Toona on 0415 189 467

Thanks in advance from Arlo the Egg, and Flossy the Lonely Hen.
