An invitation from Byron Bay Slow Food
100 Mile Lunch - Sunday 5 July
This is something really special!! The lunch will be held at the Cromwell's Farm at Goonengerry- originally the Sheaffes Farm, circa 1900.
Due to the location we are limited with numbers. Members are invited to book first- $40 per head - and also will be invited to be involved with the food for the lunch. This is a function we can all take an active part in!
ALL ingredients, even spices, will be sourced locally. The event is BYO- that means wines from Tenterfield or maybe Sirromet at Cotton Creek (grapes must be grown in the 100 mile (160km) radius) and also plate, cutlery and wine glass! From 11 am-3pm RSVP-

Mullumbimby Hospital Birthing Unit is under threat of closure. The hospital will be holding two meetings to decide the fate of the birthing unit , the first being at 10am tomorrow Monday 2nd March, the second at 8:30am on Tuesday 3rd March.
Both meetings are being held at Mullumbimby Hospital.
We will be holding demonstrations at the times of the meetings to let the Area Health Service know that 200 women per year use Mullumbimby Hospital Birthing Unit and that we will NOT accept it being closed down.
It is very short notice due to the lack of publicity around the issue but it is vital that we apply some consumer pressure before they decide and not after.
PLEASE ATTEND THE DEMONSTRATIONS AT 10AM MONDAY 2ND MARCH (TOMORROW) AT MULLUMBIMBYHOSPITAL, AND/OR 8:30AM TUESDAY 3RD MARCH AT MULLUMBIMBY HOSPITAL.
THE WOMEN OF MULLUMBIMBY AND SURROUNDS NEED YOUR SUPPORT
EMAIL AND CALL AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN
MAKE BANNERS AND SIGNS
IT IS SHORT NOTICE BUT URGENT!!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND LOVE TO ALL

Cane Toads are listed as a Key Threatening Process under schedule 3 of the NSW TSC act as they pose threat to local native wildlife. They are poisonous to predators such as snakes and birds. Large toads are known to eat small native animals. The toads also compete with native frogs for food and habitat.
Twenty-eight of native frogs have been identified in the Byron Shire. Council is working in partnership with Goonengerry Landcare to control the local cane toad population.
This program has been assisted by the New South Wales Government through its ‘Environmental Trust’.
