So lovely to see our waste become such a useful resource to folk. Thanks so much for working with us! Andrew (Wilderness Society Sydney)

lol, although on closer inspection it’s the area around the fig that you all deftly dispatched the unwanted flora. Heading down now to see how the citruses are going and flip those hessian tops as you suggested.

Yes and you are right it is Celandine – a plant – that we cleared from that space not ceramics… (celadon edited)

Fantastic work! Especially awesome to see all that Greater Celandine cleared.

It’s been such gorgeous weather for gardening, and having the extra regular work sessions are really paying off!

Yes it was a relaxing enjoyable Autumn day. It’s great to see so many people interested in what is happening locally and participate in this kind of event.

Yay, that was a great day! I took some of those potatoes home, they cooked up nicely in a favorite Madhur Jaffrey recipe.

Hi Derek – I don’t know of any formally arranged community gardens in the Blue Mountains aside from the two at Katoomba and Lawson. Probably the place to start asking is at the Springwood Neighbourhood Centre Co-operative Ltd (SNCC) – http://sncc.org.au/
We are always interested in helping in any way we can to promote the development of others so if you get time drop in and have a chat with some of the volunteers involved here at Katoomba. There are lots of other groups such as the permaculture and transition orgs that also are a good place to make contacts. I know starting your own local community garden does not sound all that easy, but there are probably more like you in the local area who would like to participate. And I know that having Costa talking up the shared community garden idea on ‘Gardening Australia’ will likely generate more interest too.
