An inspiring documentary and guest speaker in the lead up to our own Black Cockatoo pocket forest planting 🌳🌲

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 specific native tree species, uses organic soil amendments, dense planting, 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, urban heat and restore biodiversity.

Following the movie hear from Dr Grey Coupland who leads the internationally recognised Miyawaki Forest Outreach Program at Murdoch University, and is assisting with our Black Cockatoo Forest project. Anne Courtney, local resident and TTV committee member will also share her experiences on the community consultation process for the transformation of Stuart Street Reserve in North Perth.

There will also be a guided tour of our nearby Black Cockatoo pocket forest prior to the movie at 5.30pm

Join us at our monthly movie night to learn and be inspired to take action.
