Herb sale

We are trialing a new way of selling our organic herbs. Rather than have one market day per term, you can order your herbs any Thursday or Friday. To do so, send a gold coin per bunch to the school with a note of what you need. Alternatively, email your order to me at vsimic@santglen.catholic.edu.au . Herbs will be given to students at the end of the day. That way you can have the freshly picked herbs when you need them. 

We always have parsley, mint, melissa (lemon balm), rosemary and lemon verbena. Occasionally, we will have other seasonal herbs which we'll advertise in our newsletter or the gardening notice board. 

Thank you for your support.
