    Hello Jane.

    Ooooby is not at any markets around Auckland anymore as we have changed to a local food home delivery service instead. You can find out more here. www.ooooby.org Hope that helps.

    hi Jane, it will be good getting to know you on Ooooby, must be great having your own milk, i tried that long ago, but i am no milkmaid! the cow got the better of me. I am in the process of putting a seedlist together, I have a big variety of seed saved from my garden, I'll get back to you soon
