With the rising food costs, associated with the drought, the Hilton Produce Exchange has been initiated to bring together backyard gardeners for swapping and sharing high quality local food on a regular basis in a spirit of generosity and fairness; to connect with likeminded people and to encourage others to start growing local food at home. The emphasis is primarily on organic fruit and veggies, open-pollinated / heirloom seed and preserves, but could also include healthy homemade baked goods, cut flowers, even second hand books, clothes or upcycled crafts.
There has been overwhelming support for our very first monthly meeting which is on the 30th April at the Hilton Tennis Club field from 9am. Join https://www.facebook.com/groups/HiltonProduceExchange/ to keep updated on future events.
