For those in Toowoomba or if you are looking for an excuse to come to the Garden City I will be at the Toowoomba Farmers Market (TFM) this Saturday beside Cobb & Co, Lindsay Street. The big news is TFM is moving to the Waltons Precinct in Annand Street. The markets will be weekly from the first of April from 7-11am. Costa the gardening guru will be there! Lots of organic fresh fruit, vegetables, cheeses and meats plus much more all straight from the producer to you.

The Ipswich Garden Show is on 11/12 March, over 100 stalls including us. Why not come and have a look, even if you live in Brisbane (you don't need a visa). They have a great lineup of speakers and lots of different things to see. This link will take you to their website for more details: http://www.plantexpo.com.au
