Veggie Service Tuesday 25th February. BSCPA Market Saturday 1st March.

[Julia Farmer]

Hallo Dear Friends 

Well what a difference a week makes! Last Saturday I was enjoying the cool weather and gentle rain, then on Wednesday we experienced heavy rainfall and my house was almost flooded, while the farm became a lake! So we were unable to harvest and the road from my farm was also flooded. It's clearing up now and thus I should be able to have the Veggie Service this coming Tuesday at least. My heart goes out to anyone who also went through trauma and may have lost property in the process. Let's hope the weather has settled now. 

I have been in touch with BSPCA and both the staff and the animals are fine as they have not been affected by the floods. That also means our market will be going ahead as planned. The Organic Workshop is also going on ahead and please remember that the Early Bird Price finishes next Friday 28th February. For more details see below and contact me on Whatsapp 71726027 to be sent the full information.

Don't forget to also reserve your places at my talk at The Patio on Saturday 15th March and for the Raise Your Vibration Retreat on Saturday 29th March. Please see attached posters.
