Hello cherry lovers!



This coming Sunday December 16 from 9am - 12pm we have been invited to pick cherries at Captains Creek Organic Farm. 89 Kangaroo Hills Road, Blampied. The deal is that we get to take home half the amount of all the cherries we pick. You can either meet us there, or meet at the community garden beside the library at 8.30am for car pooling. No need to RSVP. Just rock up. BYO containers.

Hello bee lovers!

Also this coming Sunday from 1pm - 5pm there is an exciting free event happening at the Hepburn Primary School and Melliodora: Why listen to bees? Presenters include Annie Stewart, Khadija Carroll, Kirsten Bradley, Nick Ritar, Shohn Murnane and Nathan Curnow.

How do we, with our human ears and human brains, make sense of these sounds? Can we learn to listen to bees through the prism of their own experience, instead of ours? How might it be possible to become more 'bee-centric' or even ‘bee-like’ in our listening?

More details and registration details here.

Also this coming Sunday the 16th from 1pm - 4pm is the monthly Daylesford Repair Café in the pavilion at Victoria Park. Volunteer helpers and fixers will be onsite and ready to help mend your items. There will be tea, coffee and cakes to be enjoyed too. 

UPDATE: Please note, there is no December repair café. They will be back again on Saturday January 19.

This coming Monday 17th at 10am, Keiran Foley from Steam Weeds will be at the skate park community garden giving us a demonstration of how his steam weeders work. The equipment creates saturated steam and is not a harmful chemical weed management process.
