A very practical gate to plate


In 2010 the Lower Clarence Community Garden Group received $50,000 from the Northern Rivers Food Links project and Village Showcase to establish a community garden in Yamba; facilitate a whole of community approach to participation in the garden; provide assistance and potentially financial support to aspirant community garden groups in the Lower Clarence area; support training groups by making the garden available as a training resource; and the delivery of workshops for the community.

The garden this group started in Wattle Park is coming along splendidly.

Moggy Musing

Hi! My name is Boy. I'm a male bi-coloured tabby cat. Ever since I discovered that Malcolm Turnbull's dogs were allowed to blog, I have been pestering Clarencegirl to allow me a small space on North Coast Voices.

A Hogan-esque musing: Which North Coast Nationals candidate at this year's federal election is complaining to anyone who will listen that the mainstream media is ignoring him?

A thought to ponder: In case of bushfire or flood - do you have an emergency evacuation plan for the family pet?
An adoption musing: Every week on the NSW North Coast a number of cats and dogs find themselves without a home. If you want to do your bit and give one bundle of joy a new family, contact Happy Paws on 0419 404 766 or your local council pound.

Archived musings can be found here.
