Who wants to pick some vine-ripened tomatoes this Wednesday morning? Keep some for yourself and family/friends and donate the rest to charity. Meals on Wheels make about 250 meals and day and use a lot of tomatoes, so are happy to take whatever we pick. The farm has 25 rows, each with more than 50 tomato plants. The tomatoes have been grown with bugs for bugs (natural biological control) and organic sprays.
The farmer stopped watering because his crop wasn't proving economically viable; I spoke to him and he is happy to see the tomatoes go to a good cause and said whatever we can pick, we can have. Let's not let them go to waste- SustainaBundy troops unite!
When: Wednesday, 28th November, anytime after 7am
Where: John Moffat Road (left off Moore Park Rd before Gooburrum School if you're coming from town) - you'll see the small farm on your right.
What to bring: buckets or bags, water/drinks, hat, etc. I'll bring an esky.
See you there!
