The ...Anything 'bio' in German is organic. The biogarten is an organic garden run by the local community college. Well, in name it is but they don't really get involved much beyond paying the gardener and taking registrations for courses I think.<br /><br />There is on full-time gardener and otherwise the work is done by a team of volunteers working on Tuesday afternoons and Saturday mornings. In return, we usually get to take something home if anything has been harvested that day. <br /><br />As far as equipment goes, I don't have a huge amount. I got a water bath canner on ebay, bought a jar lifter as well last winter which is a huge help and that's about it. I'll try and take some pictures soon and do a proper post.

Also, you mention your 'canner' and pressing apples for juice - have you much specialist equipment for home preserving? Enjoy dipping into your blog. Kind Regards, MagsMagsnoreply@blogger.com
