We have an active Crop Swap in the Brook at the Community Gardens (Tantragee Rd) on the first Sunday of the month. Anyone, no matter where you live, is invited.

What happens at a Crop Swap ?

Everyone brings some produce fruit, vegs, preserves, herbs, seedlings, and anything else that grows - to the Gardens and puts it on the table for all to see.
Then we tell everyone present what we've brought and a little about it.

After that we are free to choose what we want from the table. That's it !!

We sometimes have a cup of herbal brew too ! You are free to stay on and chat to anyone and leave when you like or have a stroll around the gardens.

We start promptly at 10.30am so try to be there a few minutes before that.

It's a national event which has been going since 2014 originally starting in Taranaki.

See you there tomorrow !

Are you into foraging or simply want to expand your plant knowledge? Then this awesome workshop is for you.

Sunday, 19th February, 10:00 am – 2:30 pm.

Go for a walk in lush surroundings at Riverside Community and soak up your tutor John Massey's wisdom on how to work and live more in tune with nature and with what some people may call 'common weeds'. Wild plants have much to give in terms of nutrients and healing power, yet their vast potential often goes unrecognised and underutilised. Stinging nettle, red clover and plantain are just three examples of largely ignored and - in the case of stinging nettle- frowned upon treasure troves.

All ages and experience levels are welcome.
$45 per person. Registration for this session is essential!
