Apple & Radish

Do you make kombucha? It's not only gut friendly it's also very budget friendly! But waiting 7 to 10 days for your batch to be ready can be a drag. In my latest newsletter you'll find the ultimate Apple & Radish Guide to Kombucha. I’ll show you how to make a continuous batch so you always have kombucha at perfect readiness (not too vinegary or too sweet). I also discuss the difference between a 'party' and a 'gatho'. Make sure to subscribe to get more like this direct to your inbox!

It's almost that time of year when Apple & Radish goodies go live!

The Apple & Radish online shop will open for two weeks in November so you can stock up on all your favourite natural soaps, skin and haircare.

( I'm doing two product releases each year these days - May and November - the only times you can purchase Apple & Radish products).

I've got my pinny on and I'm whirring and stirring and filling the studio with heady fragrances of Lavender, Rose and Lemongrass.

Stay tuned for updates! Best is to be signed up to my mailing list so you don't miss it.

Yesterday's Tamborine Mtn Edible Garden Trail was off the hook! If you didn't get tickets, you really missed out. Make sure you line up for them next year because it has to be one of the nicest ways to spend a day. It was a joy to welcome people to our garden and totally nerd out on all things permaculture, beauty and nature.

It really gives me hope that there are so many people keen to grow their own food and connect with nature and each other n kind and creative ways.

I've had my hands deep in the dirt these last couple of months getting our food gardens back into shape.

And it feels so good!

If you'd like to see what we've been up to, come along to the Tamborine Mountain Edible Garden Trail this Sunday 8th October.

Ours is one of six gardens sharing ideas and a passion for home grown produce.

You'll also get to meet our darling new baby - Brie! Our jersey x fresian 10 week old calf. If you're lucky you might even be in time for her bottle feed.
Tickets are $12 each (kids free). See for more.
