Pine St raingarden planted

Pine St raingarden newly planted

Remember the terrific work done by the chefs and Rachel, John, Helen and others to make the bed for the Pine St raingarden?  To find it click on ‘raingardens’ in the Tags, or it’s here:  http://archive.sustainablehouse.com.au/wp-admin/post.php?post=608&action=edit

Helen and Don have planted it out and finished it just in time for the good rain we’ve had these last few days.  Notice the cracks between the bricks which mean the rain from the footpath can run in there and be picked up through the gravel and carried by the ag pipe then dispersed below the bed to the roots of the plants.

Thanks, chefs n all, enjoy, M
