Some of our group joined up with one of the Climate Torches journeying around Australia on their way to Canberra.
As local seed savers we are trying to make sure that our varieties are adapted to the local environment. We continuously select seed from the best performing plants in our gardens and this helps to create strains that excel in our soils and climate.
We pay a lot of attention to the weather as it effects much of what we do. So we are very concerned about the long term changes that are forecast for our climate. We are each taking steps to reduce our impact on the environment and want the Government and businesses to do their part too.
