What more could you want, really, a Network cram-packed with activity across
the breadth of this big, drying land, activity that you too can participate
in.

And... while I'm at it here... does anyone have anything to say about
community gardens, city farms and the process of starting and running them?
Or working in paid employment in them? Or any observations about community
gardening, educational gardens in schools and education for sustainability?
If so, it's time to put pen to paper - finger to keyboard, rather - and send
anything you care to write to the above email address for our next edition
of Community Harvest, - journal of the Australian City Farms & Community
Gardens Network (download past editions at: www.communitygarden.org.au).

Thanks for reading.
