Oh yes, and we will have an Easter egg hunt of course!

What a lovely morning it was. Thanks so much for your generous comments, your help on the morning and for bringing her along.Your little girl was such a gem. I think she is the new green thumb in your family! You'll all be eating food she has grown in no time. Keep her passion alive with opportunities for growing flowers and herbs too and follow my ezine (from ecobotanica.com.au) or ecobotanica facebook for some weekly plant and food suggestions. Kind regards, Linda

Had a great time at this workshop this morning. My daughter was inspired and has now made seventeen newspaper pots that are waiting for soil and seeds and I reckon there will be another seventeen made before I'm even out of bed in the morning. Bean and pea seeds that were planted in handmade pots at the workshop have had their c-weed feed and are now being eagerly watched for any sign of growth. Thanks Linda!

Hi Barb Don't forget to book in with me if you haven't already. 33492962 I'm looking forward to it too. I love teaching little people to feed themselves and connect with the earth.
