Transition Town Vincent Movie Night - Making a Mini-Forest
Event description
An inspiring documentary and guest speaker in the lead up to our own Black Cockatoo pocket forest planting on National Tree Day in July. 🌳🌲
In different places, at different times, different people work towards the same goal - planting mini-forests in European cities. These groups use the Miyawaki Method, a tree-planting technique that focuses on regionally native tree species, uses no chemical fertilizers or additives, planting densely, using a relatively small area of land, and requires no maintenance after a few years. Narrated by Hannah Lewis, author of "Mini-Forest Revolution," stories form a bigger picture of planting mini-forests to counter climate change and restore biodiversity.
We've especially chosen this documentary for July in the lead up to our own Black Cockatoo pocket forest planting on National Tree Day on Sunday 27th. July We will be joined by special guest speaker Dr Grey Coupland for a talk and discussion after the screening about what is happening in WA, and our very own plans to create a Black Cockatoo pocket/mini-forest here in the City of Vincent!
Join us at our monthly movie night to learn and be inspired to take action.
