The Gourmet Garden Cookbook

This cookbook was produced by the School Association in December 2006. It is a collection of favourite recipes gathered from gardeners and cooks of Woodbridge School and the local Woodbridge community. The recipes use locally grown produce fresh from the garden. It has been illustrated by our talented little artists in the primary school and makes a great gift.
Copies are available from the school, the Woodbridge Post Office, and Peppermint Bay for $8.00.
