Permaculture House + Garden Tour - subsistence permaculture and belonging economies in action

How are we to live? How are we to conserve, restore, gather, grow, reclaim, tend and renew? And do all this at a time of growing crises. It's a time for action - not just for taking to the streets - but also a time to free ourselves from the many tendrils of the Financial Industrial Complex. How are we to act according to our values every day in our households and communities?

With what we have on hand and within the limits of our cultural and species context, how are we to perform life and live with meaning and purpose? The constant asking of these vital questions is central to the way Artist as Family lives.

We look forward to unpacking the whys and hows of our built, biological and behavioural lifeways during this tour of Tree Elbow, our 18 year-old permaculture home in Dja Dja Wurrung Country.

How do we live without supermarkets?
How do we live without insurance, debt and toilet paper?
How do we live richly below the poverty line?
What does permaculture neopeasantry look like up close?
What can we eat and do to enable our health and well being?

The tour price is $75 per person and includes morning and afternoon tea.

While we love kids, and host a range of activities especially for them, we prefer children are not brought along on this tour. The tour is information dense.

We look forward to sharing with you our lifeways, knowledges and skills for a resilient future,

Meg, Patrick, Woody and Lilly Pilly
