She recommends you grow your own to use in your cooking. This doesn't take up much space.
Madeleine spoke about her involvement in Bunya Lions and the Walk for Aussie Kids they are sponsouring. The walk is an 8 kilometre one on 14 August 2008. The funds raised provide walkers for people with cerebral palsy. As they deal directly with the people needing the walkers there is not the normal bureaucratic drama and the people in need get the walkers quickly.
They are seeking corporate sponsors for the event as well as donations for raffles and sponsors for walkers.
Members present all expressed interest in getting behind the project.
