Sharing backyard bounty at the One Planet Market

The Stepney/Norwood Sustainable Communities Group run the Share and Swap stall in the One Planet Market every third Saturday of the month.  November saw active sharing and swapping of the following fresh and tasty home grown produce: cabbages, oranges, leeks, oregano, rocket, white onions, warrigal greens, spinach, rosemary and bayleaves, tomato and pumpkin seedlings, olives, mulberries, parsley in punnets, lemon grass, lemons and sage.

These deliciously fresh items were grown by people in the neighbourhood from Stepney, Marden, Kensington Park, Kent Town, Unley, St Peters, Payneham, Felixstow, Royston Park, Woodforde and Erindale.

So next month  leave your grocery shopping until the afternoon and come along to the One Planet Market in the morning.  Bring along excess produce from your own garden to share and take away with you the freshest and tastiest ingredients possible.

The Share and Swap stall is just one of many at the One Planet Market providing a great opportunity to design your week’s menu around the fabulous range of locally grown and home produced food, fruit and vegetable products.  We look forward to seeing you at the next market:  9am-12 noon Saturday 17 December 2011.
