carlturney Posted August 5, 2017 Hi All, How does Sunday August 27th at noon near the Tecoma Pavilion at the eastern edge of the Melbourne Botanical Gardens? As usual, my luck in the garden has been too good, and I've got lots of plants to give away to whoever attends. How can we tell all the local gardeners, who have ticked "no" to this forum emailing them when something gets posted here? On the day, you can give me ideas on what to cover for my hands-on gardening workshop at the upcoming EGA in a few months. Cheers, Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carlturney Posted August 24, 2017 Hi All, IF you've been to our Melbourne Gardener's meetings before, AND are free around mid-day this Sunday (27 August 2017), AND can get to the outer eastern suburb of Wantirna South (i.e. Westfield Knox Shopping Centre), THEN -=text=- (not ring) me ASAP, and I'll take you on a tour of a beautiful garden I'm involved with. Mobile 0427 024 735 Carl p.s. Let's get lots of local hands-on gardeners active and involved ASAP, in preparation for the EGA in Victoria in December this year. There should be lots of newcomers in need of seeds, cuttings, compost, pots, guidance, etc. Let's be ready for them! :-) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazonian Posted August 24, 2017 I have family commitments this weekend, so I'm out. Maybe we can have a meet in December before or after EGA and hopefully we can get some interstaters attend . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Francois le Danque Posted August 26, 2017 Solid idea Ammo, we should have a bigfunparty!~ As for the morrow, I will be there and be square, with a rag-tag bunch of larrikins. We're unconventional, but we may be the Earth's only hope. PS can anyone pls bring us a cube print? really want to try this new microscope. I would also be interested in trading for some ipomoea or rivea seeds (not really interested in argyreia) so i can investigate a long-standing theory about the lysergic content of the abovementioneds being due to symbiotic fungi within the seeds. wew!

carlturney Posted August 26, 2017 Hi All, If you're going to EGA in December 2017: I'll be presenting some hands-on gardening workshops there, and PROMOTING THE MELBOURNE GROWERS' MEET-UPS. So, let's have a meet-up at the usual place, the first Sunday after the EGA? We need to get our numbers up, eh. Today's (Sunday 27 Aug 2017) noon-ish meeting... PLEASE NOTE: Due to the low response rate, INSTEAD OF THE BOTANIC GARDENS, I'm going to have a few folks over at my garden, near WANTIRNA SOUTH (~30 km due east of the Melbourne CBD). When you're in the area, just ring or text me, and I'll guide you in to the exact address. Carl Turney Mobile 0427 024 735 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irabionist Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) I'm keen on a meet this September, I miss you guys. Although, I won't be around for the 22nd weekend but after that I'm cool, maybe first of October? Edited August 28, 2017 by irabionist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karode13 Posted September 6, 2017 I'm keen for a meet before EGA in December. We should probably pow wow together before then. Plus, it's Spring. We need to celebrate that at least. . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DiscoStu Posted September 12, 2017 i can do 8, but we need to cement a day so i can get some time off 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karode13 Posted September 12, 2017 Dates don't worry me so the 8th of October is cool for me, Stu. All interested just try to lock in a date. I'll be there. The Gardens are lovely in Spring @obtuse: We do need to catch up. Got Alan coming over to talk for EGA. I'm trying to keep him in the country until the fungi arrive down here. I'm without a vehicle for the next few weeks but hope to have a new space ship soon. We'll work something out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
