The Long Gully Seeds Mob
Finn den Otter
Finn moved to Bendigo from Brisbane to study Outdoor Education but somehow got mixed up with the Seeds crew! When he's not providing his housemates with gourmet cheeses from dumpster-diving, he's hanging out with young people in Long Gully and fixing their bikes. Finn is also organises trips for Outdoor Edge and is completing the Praxis course.
