Phil’s spring to-do list

Is your vegie garden spring ready? PHIL DUDMAN has some tasks you can put into action now.

Safe haven

An organic community farm can be a lifesaver in a rough neighbourhood, SIMON WEBSTER reports.

Solo effort

Don’t despair: individuals’ actions can have an effect on climate change, SIMON WEBSTER reports.

Show your citrus some lovin’

If you’ve been enjoying a bumper crop of citrus this year, now is the time to give something back reports Phil Dudman.

Bloomin’ nuisance

A daffodil drought has England all of a twitter, SIMON WEBSTER reports.

A taste of permaculture

I’m just back from the Gardening Australia Expo in Adelaide where apart from selling subscriptions and magazines, I was able to link up with friends and permaculture contacts.

Soils ain’t soils

If you’re setting up a new garden and thinking of trucking in a load of ‘organic soil blend’ from your local landscape yard, beware… some blends being sold are complete rubbish. Phil Dudman explains.
