I wish the gap between the super hot and the cold had been longer and I had more time to plant winter veg because it is only now that I am harvesting again after what seems like a very long time.
In the past week I have harvested 5 Pepinos. 2 Chinese cabbages and a few cape gooseberries.
The gooseberries didn't have a chance of being photographed as they headed straight for my mouth.
Slowly but surely spring is coming...I can't wait!

Hi Fay
ReplyDeleteI am from Porter Novelli Adelaide, a PR company working with natural personal care company Burt’s Bees. We are about to launch an online survey asking Australian consumers about your concerns and attitudes to ‘natural’ ingredients – what ‘natural’ means to you in personal care products (such as hair, face and body products) and what matters about it. Between the people at Burt’s Bees and ourselves, we’ve decided we need to know from the source (you and your readers) so we’re posting here to ask if we may provide more information about the survey and a link via this site.
All sorts of assumptions get made in marketing and both Burt’s Bees and Porter Novelli Adelaide have decided it’s about time someone actually asked these questions of real consumers. We will share what we learn with you and with the health and beauty media, and we’ll post it on the Burt’s Bees website too. (A similar survey in the US, by the way, led to Burt’s Bees working with other major natural personal care companies to develop a national standard for ‘natural’ via the Natural Products Association)
What do you think? I'm looking forward to hearing your feedback. You can contact us at Adelaide@porternovellisa.com.au.
Many thanks,
Jessie Morris
