Drought
I went to a nursery today to get mulch. They had no pea straw and no lucerne
hay. They said because of the drought that they were having trouble getting it from anywhere. Anyone else been finding this? Liz |

If you have one in your area go to a rural supplier but expect to pay through the nose for any mulching material let alone the good stuff that is used as animal feed like lucerne. |

Hmm, I just remembered that our rural supply bloke at one stage sold bales of rice husks which we used for rabbit shed flooring. They were also okay for mulching, but not everyone could handle a wool pack. |
