Kat Lavers is a garden farmer, permaculture designer and facilitator. Her award-winning urban permaculture system, ‘The Plummery’, produces almost all the household’s vegies, herbs, fruit and eggs (more than 350kg in 2016!) on a 1/14th acre, while using only 46L mains water per person and 3.9kWh electricity per day.

 
When she’s not teaching permaculture and organic gardening, Kat works with local councils and communities to design urban agriculture projects, and is a volunteer coordinator of Permablitz Melbourne.

 
Kat teaches on Milkwood’s Permaculture Design Certificate course.
