It may be cold, but the days are getting longer, and it's a great time of year for indigenous planting. As always, we'll have a big range of local, native plants for your nature strip or garden as well as edible seedlings and beneficial flowers, all for only a gold coin each. The tables will be a bit more spread out this time to give everyone some more space to browse and chat. We will have music from DJ On Milk, and you can take time to enjoy some books on plants, wildlife, First Nations culture, system change, and more from the new Rain Moth library collection. Part of the proceeds from the sale will be donated to Grandmothers Against Removal (GMAR). GMAR Victoria draws on the wisdom, strength and compassion of Aboriginal grandmas and aunties to support children and their families at risk of separation. Check out Aunty Reio’s interviews with 3CR here and here to find out more about the important work they are doing. Sale plant list - Chervil, other herbs, lettuces and leafy greens
- Asian greens, broccoli, rapini and kale
- Broad beans, snowpeas and shelling peas
- Leeks, spring onions, beetroot
- Beneficial flowers such as hollyhocks, aquilegias, poppies, native daisies and native orchids
