Greetings Lisa! James Samuel thought your experiences in Vietnam might lead to some connections that perhaps could lead to teaming up on the first full scale, bamboo based "Perma Yurt" structure(see link below). Hope to hear from you when you have some time. My skype id: Joshua Doolittle

Hey Lisa. Just wanted to say hi. Maybe we can have a proper chat one day. I just got your phone number from Josk MacTavish. You were great on TV the other day. It was an honor to be interviewed with you.

Hi Lisa, your garden looks great, is that a community garden in Whanganui?

Hey Lisa - if you want to attract some local activity on this site, within friends in Whanganui you could post an offering on the seedlings swap group and then send a link out to your friends that takes them to that new discussion.

Timing is everything...

We go away for 10 days in January, so I try hard to arrange things in the garden so that there is not too much of a glut around this time. Mixed results at the moment - the climbing beans are climbing fast but no flowers yet, so that's good; the tomatoes have a few just starting to ripen but not many, good; cucumber growing but only flowers at present, good; celery regenerating as we pick it; BUT, the courgette is going nuts as are the lettuces. Parsley and spinach are going to seed. I'm thinkin…

With avid gardeners being the main contributors, the quality of produce is typically higher than most yet the prices are still good.

The first Stall is at the Grey Lynn Farmers Market, Auckland, each Sunday. (expt last of the month)


Bring any produce you can from your garden and we'll do a deal.


Not from around Auckland? Why not start an Ooooby Stall in your area? More info...
