We are a group of micro farmers who welcome anyone who keeps animals or grows vegetables and fruit, or loves cooking! Who would like to come along to our meetings or events and share their experiences with others. You don't need to have lots of animals to be a "smallholder." Many people who grow vegetables, have some bees or maybe a couple of backyard chickens come along and enjoy the meetings and events as well.

Blackwater Show - 19 June - Thank you
A very special "Thank you" goes to Caroline [Smith]
pictured on the right talking to Donna Perkins.
Caroline volunteered [!] to sleep in her car overnight on site to ensure
that all the pens and gazeboes were still present in the morning!
All was fine until about 11.30pm when Danni had an urgent call for help
from Caroline who was having to hold down one of the gazebos that was
trying to take off!
Vince and Danni rushed up to help and secured the gazebo.
Caroline remained on site until the morning.
Thank you Caroline - your assistance was invaluable.
