Diane SQ left a comment for Kristy Weir"HI Kristy,
Square foot gardening is about arranging a max of veggies in the smallest space. You have to buid your soil. I think lasagne is fine, and digging is fine also to start with a soil that's not too great. In any case , get your…"

Kev W said… - Hi Diane-glad that my first few contacts didn't involve hate mail from vegans! haha! keen to get this aspect of ooooby rolling although some of the larger items might take a bit of organising. I usually stand in front of that department in a frothing rage at the price they charge for the quality offered and im sure im not alone! anyway, ill keep in touch and when we have a few of us to make it worthwhile ill get the ball rolling. As for the smaller stuff, its pretty easy to get and process so yell out if you are curious

- Hi Diana,
the twilight market was great. Sudesh sold more than me! Excellent! Usha, her husband and Ulrich were also there.
We are now thinking of doing the Northtec Certificate in Sustainable Rural Development (Level 3), which will take place every Thur+Fri from Feb-June 2010 in Riverhead.
Sorry I will not be able to make it on Tuesday. But will be at Sudesh's Monday, tomorrow, instead. Don't know whether you want to come Monday or Tuesday.
Cheers
Sigrid
