Fellow growers we would love to see you at the upcoming workshop we’re hosting with Local Line: Selling Straight from the Farm - A Live Workshop for Australian & New Zealand growers. Direct sales can be chaotic and cluttered full of spreadsheets, dropped orders, and stress. But they can also be thoughtful, sustainable, and surprisingly smooth. This workshop is for growers who are looking to build systems where online sales support the farm, rather than compete with it in ways that fit small-scale systems.  
We look forward to sharing what we’ve learned about online sales:  the good, the bad, and the things we wish we’d known earlier. We’ll be joined by:

🌱 Ben Pohlner from Volcano Produce (VIC)
🌱 Grace Gamage from Broom and Brine (TAS)
🌱 James Hutchinson from ActiveVista (TAS) We look forward to seeing you there, sharing all and answering your questions. If you can’t make it on the day that’s no problem, the session will be recorded and sent out afterwards.
 📅 August 13, 12pm AEST/ 10am AWST 🖥 Online – link in bio 🎟 Free

The garden team planting new seedlings with our Japanese Paperpot Transplanter 🌱 Invented in Japan in the 1960s, this contraption allows farmers to transplant up to 264 seedlings in just minutes, making a quick solution out of what once would have once taken hours of back breaking work on hands and knees to complete. The biodegradable paper chain pots (which the seedlings are grown in) arrive flat, and are extended out into a honeycomb grid pattern. Soil is then added and seeds are sown in each pot in the nursery, until the seedlings are ready to be transplanted into a garden bed. Paperpots are most commonly used for crops that grow well being closer together, e.g. baby lettuce, salad greens, herbs, kohlrabi, onions, leeks, and spring onions. The great thing about it is that there is no engine to fuel, few moving parts to maintain, and the machine handles the whole task of planting by carving a small furrow, and even packing the soil down over each plant. We’re all about efficiency on the farm, and tools like these help us spend more time doing other tasks that need to be done. Like enjoying the sunshine.

She's a thing of great beauty! Feast your eyes on our new 30m caterpillar tunnel! Complete with a large sliding door thanks to the ingenuity of @joshuagwilliams . The beds have been lovingly tended and salad successions have been sown as @farmer_chalmer summons forward tender winter greens. Cheers to @green__prawn and @blackpigfarmer for being much taller than us and for always gleefully lending a hand. We purchased this kit from @activevistagram with financial assistance from the young farmers scholarship program. #youngfarmers #polytunnel #caterpilartunnels #agroecology #wintersaladgreens #takesavillage
