🍓 Hi Friends, can you help our new food gardens grow 🍓

We're so excited to be setting up our new Selmes Food Gardens, and are now seeking donations of berry plants to help get our berry areas started.

If you have any spare:

🍓 Strawberry runners
🫐 Blueberry cuttings or
❤️ Raspberry canes or suckers

that you would be willing to donate, we'd love to hear from you.

Our Food Gardens will help provide fresh produce for our community while creating opportunities for people with disabilities to learn, connect, and experience the benefits of gardening and growing food.

If you can help, please send us a message or drop your donations off at Selmes.

Thank you for supporting this exciting new community initiative.

Please feel free to share this post with your gardening friends too😃

Mushroom Compost is amazing!! We're using a mix of mushroom compost and garden blend in our new raised garden beds and yesterday we harvested our first spinach and pak choi. (It went into a yummy soup made by Simon).

For a limited time we're selling our Mushroom Compost for $45 scoop (about 1/3rd cubic metre). Normally $60 scoop so this is a great price!

We're open Tuesday - Saturday 9.00am to 4.00pm at 141 Battys Road. Our team look forward to seeing you soon 😊

There was plenty of laughter (and a few very serious taste tests 😄) in the Selmes kitchen this morning as our team got stuck in making ANZAC bikkies with Kate.

It was a great reminder of how powerful shared experiences can be. From measuring and mixing to rolling and baking, everyone played a part—building confidence, learning new skills, and supporting each other along the way.

These moments are what Selmes is all about. Creating opportunities for people to connect, contribute, and grow in a positive, hands-on environment.

And yes… they tasted pretty great too 👏
