LAUNCHING PERMABLITZ IN THE GONG


Hi all funky Permies and passionate organic gardeners. Shez is hosting Wollongong's first Permablitz on Saturday 12th February 2011 from 9am.

You are invited to enjoy some creative time in an amazing suburban Permaculture oasis.
Brief informal discussions identified a need amongst our network to provide assistance for "cranking the goodness" in people’s backyard gardens. What better way to unite the community with food, laughter and organic gardening "Permaculture" style while retrofitting the neighbourhood sustainably.

Shez has developed a design, organised materials and tools. The plan is to:
  • mulch the nature strip and front yard and plant out with native grasses, shrubs and trees
  • extend the chicken run under the cassurinas
  • overhaul the chicken house
  • plumb the chicken house roof to harvest water into a recycled olive barrel
  • thin and pot up sugar bananas suckers
  • prune and chop & drop mulberry and oak
A tasty home grown organic feast and refreshments will be lovingly provided.
Hope to see you from 9am on the 12th of February. Please bring hats and sunscreen.

Address: 22 Princess Hwy West Wollongong (directly opposite TIGS)
Parking is available on Highway Ave.
