Hilton harvest Twilight Fair

Well, we've been told that its really happened, our life long ambition of being on Gardening Australia has been fulfilled. Alas, we have not seen it yet because we were all at our community garden for the annual and fabulous Twilight Fair. We had a beautiful night of kids cardboard box castle making, cargo bike rides, singers, dancers, stilt walkers, fire twirlers and fantastic food. Our egos will have to wait for the repeat on ABC tomorrow! This is the only pic I have of the night so far... Yes it is of rubbish. This was our total waste from the night - four boxes of stuff. One recyclables, two compost and one chook food. Not bad eh? More pics to come.

      Hi Liz, Thanks for your kind comments. We're quite jealous of your eight acres, we can only dream of cloven hoofed animals in the burbs! Cheers, Adam

    Hi Adam and Amy,
    I found your blog because I watched Gardening Australia. I love the geek factor in your blog and all your meticulous record keeping.I read through the archives and was intrigued by your mention of homemade deodorant (July 2012, posted on Aug 27th 2012). I'd love to hear more about the recipe you use, as I'd like to make my own too. Did you do any testing , perhaps a sniff test? :) You're blog is awesome, thanks for the inspiration. Cheers, Chamali.

      Hi Chamali, Glad you liked the show and the blog, it's great to get new readers. I did the sniff test and it works really well, in fact Amy says it's better than anything you can buy at the shop. I'll ask her to put the recipe in a post. Cheers, Adam
