Hello to Everyone
I hope this finds you all well.
The group has been successfully meeting and growing for many years and this year marks the first year of operation for the committee as it stands today.
AGM,s give a group the chance at a set time to reflect on our ups and downs, our achievements in the past, and to formulate new ideas and strategies for the future.
It has been a pleasure to be associated with the committee and the wider group who show such diversity, commitment and passion.
Can’t wait to see what the next year will bring with the collective effort from us all.
I wish for enjoyment for the night.

Seed savers has had a good year. Around 1500-1600 packers of seeds in boxes and a equivalent amount in bulk packets on hand. Selling well, especially at the Mothar Mountain market – usually $70 to $100 worth sold each month. The Seeds Savers group is working well to pack the seeds, but we need more actual seed saving being done by the group. Serge suggested a seed saving workshop. Seeds need to be heirloom seed or not hybrids to keep the seeds.
Wendy said that there was a good roll up to the last one, but no one is supplying seeds.
Regula said that Anne Gibson was happy to do more workshops and she can tailor them to our requirements.
Election of Office Bearers
Serge explained that where only one person has been nominated for a role, a vote was not required.
