Lynda Hallinan's talk at the art gallery was as funny as last years. She started with a huge list of stuff she grows in her garden in Auckland (much of which (like organges) won't grow in Dunedin), and went on to give a list of eco-sins including her use of various chemicals. Perhaps the worst sin is driving one mile to work each day (thats the distance from the Unversity to the Octagon).
Just like last year she was giving away goodies. I managed to get a free copy of "Homegrown 3: Harvest Your Own Fresh Herbs". I think it is officially released on Monday. Its full of nice glossy pictures and recipies - but I've not had a chance to read it yet because I'm currently reading Homegrown 1, which arrived through the post a few days ago.
Anyhow, thumbs up for each of the Homegrown books, and if you ever get the chance to hear Hallinan holler, take it.
