Compost, Composted and Composting

Here's a couple of posts doing the rounds on Facebook and I thought how they go hand in hand.

I'm about to purchase my fourth Gedye compost bin so I don't need any convincing about the virtues  composting, it's getting enough materials and bins together where I struggle.

I've also rediscovered my enthusiasm for compost after watching a YouTube video on No-dig gardening by Charles Dowding.

Check the Date, Stewart!

Wow, I really need to take more notice of dates. Somehow I thought this was on last weekend, which it wasn't, which is good because I would've missed it but now I get another chance next weekend. Yeh for me.

Better late than never.

I'm a little (big) bit late with this given that it us only about a day and a half away, but as they say, better late than never.

The Queensland Herb Society is again gearing up for the Annual Herb Awareness day held on

Sunday 28th May 2017. It is a great event for everyone who wants to learn more about growing and using herbs. Plenty of potted herbs and herb related products available on the day, including yummy herb inspired food. Pencil it in your diary. http://www.qldherbsociety.org.au/
