Featured events
³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Harvest Exchange
Are you growing more fruit and veggies in your garden than you can eat? You’re not the only one! Bring your excess produce to our home harvest exchange and swap with other hobby-gardeners. No coins needed – fresh produce is all the currency you’ll need at the harvest exchange.
Meet like-minded people and pick up some handy tips along the way. Stay a little longer and enjoy a free vegan lunch!
