#BuyfromtheBush Movement – The best thing to happen for small rural businesses (apart from rain of course!)
So a funny thing happened in October. I saw a post on Facebook about a new selling page that had started up called ‘One day closer to rain (drought) – rural cottage crafts”.

Save the Bees…
Our planet is facing widespread decline in our insect population. In the winter of 2018, the US experienced a 40% decline in their bee population.
