April Gathering in Morangup

It was so lovely to meet so many new people at the March Hills Permies session. I hope you enjoyed learning about kombucha as much as we did! Thank you so much to Michelle Kwok for her generous sharing of wisdom, and for to everyone else who contributed. We'd love to hear how your experimenting with fermenting is going, and any ideas for future Permie meets!

This April the Hills Local Permaculture Group will be visiting Christine's plentiful, sustainably designed & ecologically aware paradise in Gidgegannup.
...
Christine has a wonderful orchard with about 30 fruit trees, some vegie beds, worm farms and chooks. It is fully fenced and netted and divided into 5 sections with gates positioned to allow the chooks access (or not) to different areas. Most of the orchard has been constructed with recycled materials (an added bonus). The rest of the block is bushland which is a haven for many of the native wildlife.

When: Saturday 20th April 10am - 12pm


Where: 76 Hill Place, Morangup. Look for the 'land for wildlife' sign on the gate and please drive slowly down the long driveway as there are roos, wallabies, emus etc who often pass this way (If you can't find it, please contact Christine on the following numbers: 9572 9777 or 0408 934 420 ) We will meet at the house first where there is plenty of parking space.


Bring: Please wear closed in shoes & a hat; secateurs if you would like cuttings from fig trees and pepinos; & morning tea to share.

A Busy Year Ahead!

Welcome to another year of fun, Hills Permies!

There are some great activities planned this year, including seed and skill swaps, fermented drink making demonstrations, tours of wonderful local gardens and some busy-bees.

Our first meeting will be held at Cwm Goch on Saturday the 16th of March, 10am as usual. Michele Kwok will be our special guest and will be demonstrating how to make fermented drinks with Kombucha and water kefir. Fascinating stuff!

Hope to see you there!
