Win a Copy of The Weed Forager’s Handbook!

Do you have a garden story to share? Whether it’s a tale of triumph, a learning experience, or just a moment of joy in your garden, we want to hear all about it!

We’re excited to announce our “Garden Stories” competition, which could be the first in a series—or the last—depending on the feedback we receive. This is your chance to win a free copy of The Weed Forager’s Handbook: A Guide to Edible and Medicinal Weeds in Australia by Adam Grubb and Annie Raser-Rowland, with free shipping Australia-wide. Plus, your garden story could be featured in our next newsletter and on our social media!
