Over the weekend of 20th and 21st of August the wormtec family traveled to brisbane to attend the North Brisbane orchid show at the Brisbane Botanical garden, we had a display of our organic products and spoke to lots of orchid growers about utilising soil microbes in there potting mixes. I have never seen so many orchids in the same place at one time. we all had a great time, with this very friendly club.

Greg And Adam ventured down to New South Wales today , to visit the Banora Point Garden Club at Club Banora

What a great club, the flowers on display had to be seen to be believed as its still winter and there were fantastic flowers on display.
I talked about the benefits of organic gardening and utilising soil biology to cycle nutrients in your garden soils and how to help reduce pest and disease pressures on your plants organically with the use of worm based products.

I have been invited to talk again for this club, it will be on retaining nutrients and minerals in potting mixes and soil, with the use of soil biology, so the nutrients and minerals dont leach out with watering.
looking forward to seeing you all there. Greg
