Transition Darebin Workshop - Sowing seeds of resilience in the suburbs

This free workshop is one of a series highlighting the skills and expertise of local people and spreading this knowledge to strengthen our community in Darebin.

Sowing seeds of resilience in the suburbs:

Methods to manage ‘waste’, mobilise and involve neighbours and regenerate small spaces.

Description:

This session seeks to inform and inspire others living in multi unit apartment precincts to:

• ‘Green’ their backyard / balcony / terrace and wider precinct
• Design systems to manage ‘waste’
• Rejuvenate small spaces and marginal edges
• Develop meaningful connections with neighbours and trades

Understand how Permaculture zones and principles can assist in creating positive changes

Note - The session time will be approximately an hour with time allowed to settle in at the start and some time for extra questions at the end if required.
