Message from Hamilton Organic Gardeners
I've put the link to the organic options for controlling grass grubs on the Facebook page. We talked about this at the meeting. Grass grubs are the probable cause of scabby skin on apples.
Here's a link to help you identify garden problems too:

DETAILS OF THEIR NEXT TRIP AS FOLLOWS
12th March 2016 - Hebe Speciosa site North of Aotea Harbour
Leader: Mike Paviour Ph: 027 801 9452
027 801 9452,
Email: mpaviour@doc.govt.nz
Rocky coastline north of Aotea Harbour, accessed over private farmland.
You need a four wheel drive to get across the farm so numbers are needed, as are four wheel drives.
Meet: South Western End of Phillips Road, North Side of Aotea Harbour at 10 AM.Â
Please let Mike know that you are coming so we can arrange car poolling with four-wheel drive vehicles to the site.
Grade: Hard. The site is quite challenging as there is steep gullies, climbing, small streams, a real adventure that people need to be relatively fit for and not too creaky.
Bring: Bring sturdy foot wear, clothing that you can climb through bush, streams and steep areas, and whatever the weather is forecasting.
