MARIA HAS BEEN PERMABLITZED...

Yesterday we held the 4th CODEMO "Permablitz" at Maria and Sergio's house in Endeavour Hills. Amidst the compulsory eating and dancing, we designed and built two no-dig veggie and herb gardens close to the house, and also planted a winter green manure crop of broad beans to prepare the soil for Maria's long-awaited watermelons come summer... Matt talked to us about swales with the help of a speedily knocked up A-frame by Sergio, Adam and Cat spent a lot of time pondering the soil, and Keith's young son created a very rare "mixed ball" tree! A couple of new faces appeared, as well as planty of familiar ones.
