Sustainable Gardening Australia (SGA) has begun organising Fruit/Veggie swaps. You can take your excess lettuce and swap them for plums or eggs. There are a growing number of these swaps beginning to happen. I have included the two that are closest to our area and one that occurs each week at CERES.
