The PASA winter gathering held on the 20th June 2010 at Fern Ave Community Garden was a big success, with over 30 people attending the event. Di from the Marion Grazers and Growers group gave an excellent presentation about bee-keeping, complete with bee-suits and smoking gear on display (and honey for sale!). This was followed by delicious wood-oven roasted potatoes with a multitude of toppings for lunch (see photos!), and then Ashley from the Seli-hoo household gave a hands-on workshop about solar cooking, with heaps of photos and information about various solar cooker types. Thanks to all the volunteers who helped make the day possible, and we look forward to seeing more PASA members at the AGM and gathering at Lochiel Park on November 7th (more details coming soon).
