We’re really stoked to be working with some of Sydney’s best growers and doers to make these workshops happen…
New Leaf Nursery are prettymuch the permaculture garden supplies go-to of Sydney – a great family-run enterprise who are hugely supportive of their communities.
Sydney Organic Gardens are Sydney’s premium organic garden designers, and Steve’s new project, Vgarden, is making vertical gardens a reality for anyone who wants one.
Then we have the amazing Sam Vivers of Viva Living Homes, who will be doing demo’s on strawbale building and earth rendering every day.
On the Saturday we have Danni (Milkwood’s new farm chef, ex Three Blue Ducks) alongside with Grant Le Brooy of Three Blue Ducks talking ferments.
And on top of that we have two different beekeepers – Tim Heard talking stingless, native beekeeping, and Tim Malfroy talking Warré beekeeping.
And on top of all THAT there’s all us, the Milkwood crew, talking Aquaponics, Backyard Veggies, Mushroom Cultivation and Urban Permaculture Design. Whew!
Hey, you’re still here? Awesome! We have 2 double passes for Gardening Australia Live to give to two lovely blog readers.
