I've just hosted one. The good folk representing the Southland Worm Breeders Association appeared to enjoy their jungle walk enormously and rewarded me with a 10 litre container of worm-tea and a carrot cake. Fair trade, I reckon. The highlights seem to have been the apple blossom, the herbal-understorey, the Guinea pigs, the kereru-bullying tui and the cob pizza oven. It was all a lot of fun.
Last night, Robyn and I spoke to the Wyndham Lions Club about our garden and Open Orchard heritage apple project and that was equally fun. We met with some true-blue Southland sons of the soil there and were given some great advice on where as some as-yet unsaved apple trees might be sequestered. We'll be back in the area in the autumn for a look.

There is a season, worms, worms, worms
And a time to every purpose under heaven
Impressive cake.
If only it was the one they gave me!
Theirs though, tasted excellent.
How can you possibly eat something that looks that good?
