6th February 2010
On Saturday morning there was a good turnout for a workshop at Murray Griffiths' place on the use of Dolichos lablab (aka Lablab Bean, Hyacinth Bean or Poor Man's Bean) as a green manure crop and other organic farming techniques.
Murray Griffiths is the man behind Mr. Organics - who supplies organic fruit, vegetables and other oganic goods out of his premises on MacDougall St.

Take a look at her work in the new 'Plant Fact File' link on the right hand side link box.
