Permaculture Northern Beaches’ International Permaculture Day 2024
This year our INTERNATIONAL PERMACULTURE DAY event will be taking place on Sunday May 5th at the wonderful New Leaf Nursery, Ingleside.
It's set to be a full and festive afternoon with something for everyone!
We have put our chicken house into operation 🙂 We have been tinkering with it for a long time. We have built a new home for chickens with a sea view using old dismantling material from our construction sites. From now on there are eggs from our own #permaculture 🙂
A very satisfying afternoon pruning the lavatera at the station garden, then putting the prunings through a chipper borrowed from #Exeter#LibraryOfThings to make wood chippings we can use in the #Hotbin composter. It all felt nicely #permaculture, using the waste from one job to make something we could use for another process.
Introduction to Permaculture with @lindawoodrow and Peter ‘Lewie’ Lewis — 5 May 2024
Linda Woodrow has been teaching permaculture for over thirty years. Her book 'The Permaculture Home Garden' has become the Bible for how to use Permaculture to create abundant food production.

Regenerating Life offers a captivating look at the regenerative movement, showcasing the stories.
The #calypsoorchids are coming up in the forest. They glitter in the dappled light. I kneel, prostrate myself before them. To gaze at their gorgeous lips. To behold their mottled depths. This is a kind of prayer.
How'd you like to travel a few years into a future world of positive outcomes?
Maybe if we practice imagining what that could be, we might be more inclined to
MAKE IT SO! (he shouted).
If that is challenging, you might want to listen closely to some of the, so far, 98 episodes of From What If to What Next. If we can't imagine it, it's not fucking likely to happen, eh? We can retrain our brains.
"If there was ever a time for fresh thinking, for being bold, for being visionary and imaginative – for reimagining everything – this is it. Each episode, writer and Transition Movement founder, Rob Hopkins, invites cutting edge thinkers to visualise a new future. Join us as we ask What If..." #permaculture#TransitionTowns https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/from-what-if-to-what-next/id1538281063
86 - What if care, cooperation, kinship and collective wellbeing were the ethics we lived by?
"When it comes to work that celebrates the #radical imagination, Jayna Brown's recent book #Black Utopias: Speculative Life and the #Music of Other Worlds is one of the most fascinating that I've read recently. Jayna is professor in the Graduate Program in #Media Studies at Pratt Institute, and for this episode she is joined by Kevin Quashie, who teaches black cultural and literary studies and is a professor in the department of English at Brown University." https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/86-what-if-care-cooperation-kinship-and-collective/id1538281063?i=1000629043264
87 - What if fungi saved the world?
"Welcome to one of those episodes of From What If to What Next that really gets under your skin. We are going to step out of our everyday commonplace universe and enter the parallel world of #fungi that lives all around us, and really creates the world we live in. It’s a pretty wild ride. Two amazing guests will hold our hands on our deep dive into this fascinating world. Dr. Patricia Ononiwu Kaishian is the Curator of #Mycology at the New York State Museum, and her forthcoming book has possibly the best title I have ever heard which I’m not going to tell you so it can be a delightful surprise. And Doug Bierend is a New York based writer and author of the book In Search of Mycotopia." https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/87-what-if-fungi-saved-the-world/id1538281063?i=1000629871301
