The CERES annual appeal has put out the urgent call for your help this year. Necessarily a financial crisis tends to take a lot of attention and it’s easy to forget there are still amazing things happening at CERES every week.

Up the Merri Creek at Joe’s Market Garden on Thursday the weeding crew (that’s them above) were hard at work helping CERES’ farmers clean row after row of bok choi, lettuce and coriander. 

There’s an obvious pay-off volunteering at Joe’s of free produce and learning organic market gardening skills from seriously talented farmers but more than that, there are the social and nature connections that people, many who are new Melbourne, take home each week from this unique garden on the Creek.
