Bob's Bistro in the Garden - All Hallow's Parish Church 50th Anniversary Saturday 20 July 2013

We had a very special celebration in our community garden to mark the 50th anniversary of All Hallows Parish Church. We had around 200 guests and are very proud of how we managed our waste. The small black garbage bag to the far left is landfill all other waste is being reused, recycled, food scraps fed to chickens and composted. All leftover food pasta and homemade pasta sauce was taken to the Matthew Talbot Centre Woolloomooloo. What a great achievement just shows how a little signage and good planning can make the most of everyone's sorting skills!

Sunshine - perfect for a day in the garden!

 We had a wonderful day in the garden on Saturday. It was a day for painting we lacquered the chicken coop (while the chickens had time free ranging on the lawn) and constructed our garden sign giving it a cover of undercoat to create a canvas for our garden identity. Linda harvested a healthy fennel - her yield for painting the chicken coop!
