Yesterday marked the end of a short lived era at Print House, it was also the beginning of our relationship with new tenants, Jim & Tonic. An ambitious distillery, bar, cafe and more. Much potential in store going forward, engaging with them on sustainability and community events. Exciting.

We managed a decent seven of us despite the unrelenting lashings of rain earlier. A quick random question, "what's the most disgusting thing you've recently eaten?" A dry orange and rotten apple, back to back, you'd probably call it a day after that. Taco Bell with a half an hour wait time, taste-time relationship not up to scratch. Cadbury's Milk Chocolate with a hidden taste of...parma violet. That's just not on. Or how about a mac & cheese not enjoyed by a mac & cheese's official number one fan? Must've been pretty miserable. If you're really hungry after a physical day, you know what you want to come home to? A couple of bits of dry semi-breaded fennel with some light embellishments around it. Lovely. Winning answer of the day? Tory Lies. No context needed. Ever.

Right, now to the good deed stuff. Xuan greeted us down at the gardens and got us to work. Weeding was the prescription, mainly mallow, a deep rooted pink flower that apparently has some medicinal qualities. We took two beds and had a good deep dig, removing all the plants as instructed. Brad got into a fight with one Mallow, it was personal, a long lasting bout, it could of gone either way, but our boy Purnell dug in under pressure and got it done.

Next week we head back to Up Garden, our favourite new project, let's be honest. Sign up here and you will not regret it.

Also, if anyone is inclined this Saturday, Kieran is uber keen for help at Get Out, sign up here if you can assist this permaculture oasis.

Till next week
