Dear All
 
The Macquarie University Community Garden at North Ryde, Sydney is
relocating. 
 
On the weekend  of  13/14 October 2007 the Macquarie University Community
Garden will be relocating. It is moving from its present location off
Culloden Road, to  a new site  about 100 meters down the road.
 
If anyone would like to assist then please feel welcome to come. This would
be a good opportunity to get in and  join a community organic garden that
will be starting afresh on a  large flat site with good sun exposure.
 
There is  a fair bit of physical work involved in the relocation. Plants and
fruit trees need to be moved, together with  a range of materials, sheds, a
200kg worm farm, fencing, etc.
 
If anyone has a backhoe/tipper/bobcat/excavator or similar ( to be use for
ground clearing/ picking up  materials ) that  could be  made available then
this would  be greatly appreciated.
 
We have most tools, but  a few mattocks /picks  could be useful.There will
be some digging  required.
 
Bring some water, a hat, some seeds and some veges to plant.
