Friends of Edgars Creek

Hi All,

Given that I am building an Ark at my place to get ready for the coming deluge in the next couple of days, perhaps we should be planting and not doing maintenance!?

The glory event that is planting has finished for the year and it is time to get into some maintenance on sites from previous projects/years.

This Sunday we will meet near the Ronald Street footbridge, west bank of the creek for some guard and stake removal/recycling, hand weeding and litter collection. Here is the location: https://goo.gl/maps/uNSpRnpo3Fdjk4wx9

Please note that the maintenance events run earlier in the day 10.00AM - 12.00 noon in case we get warmer days which often happens in warmer, dryer times (not under this La Nina!). 

Please cater for your own food and water needs and bring gloves, good boots/shoes and hat sunscreen. We will have necessary tools on site.

See you on the creek hopefully!

Regards,

David.

Sash Windows

I have put eight sash windows on the nature strip in front of 7 Whitton Parade. If you have an old Newlands house with windows in need of repair, these are a perfect fit. Some of them are in excellent condition. 

Free

If anyone wants some essential oil type things - come and collect from the front step of 14 Grey Court Coburg - not my thing, but presumably someone's cup of tea ....

Orders Open For The New Cycle!

Image: Ray from Seven Acres Farm. Read his story up on our website yet? Ray is kind of our resident sage on the Collective; his grin and his eye-sparkle a prelude to a story. Ray’s life in a farming, then commercial, then farming again, environment, means we have the wisdom of someone who has a breadth of experience to draw upon. We need that on the Collective. Doesn’t everyone? Plus, he grows awesome produce! Orders Open for Delivery on October 27th, 28th, 29th Start the Shopping Awesomness
