Hi Brigid, a worm farm could be good maybe, because it's a quick way of getting fertiliser to add to the soil and the pots. Most people seem to say you need to dilute it quite a lot. I find my compost takes a long time to make (but I'm not…

Hi Jo - that's a great idea - doing an audit of how we use the car. I try to combine trips but stil got a long way to go with reducing car use. Big panniers on the bike does make shopping by bike really easy - in good weather!

Hi Jan,

Thanks for the welcoming hello! We have been really snowed under with Christmas preparations. But am very keen to learn more about sustainabile gardening and living (we are beginner gardeners). We met Mary who lives on Dublin Road, and am very keen to meet other members who can teach us more about gardening.

Regards,

P

thanks Jan,

I saw the film on Saturday with my friend Lui (who put me onto this site). Bit light on substance but a good overview of the move to local issue, which I guess was the intention. Certainly a good discussion starter. Might come along and see it again, if time permits.

 

Cheers.
