Recently someone dug out raspberry canes and fresh potatoes from the Community Garden. This garden is located on private property and we ask that people do not remove items from the garden without notifying either Tara (0431966065) or Nikki (0409536156) before doing so. The produce is primarily for the people who tend the Community Garden, the Centacare residents (on whose land it stands) and also for use by the children at Richmond Primary School during supervised classes only

The next meeting of the Coal River Valley Sustainable Living Group is on Wednesday 10th February  at 7 pm at the Community Meeting Room, 22 Torrens Street, Richmond.
