DAVID HOLMGREN, GUNG HOE GROWERS, AUNTY JULIE

Permaculture guru David Holmgren, local farmers Gung Hoe Growers and artist, cultural leader and storyteller Aunty Julie will discuss how they ended up in this region, what inspires them and the events which led to their current occupations.

To be able to spend three weeks working at one of the best examples of permaculture, under the guidance of such experienced mentors, was a real privilege.

from Alister Tuffnell’s reflection of his three week stay at Melliodora.

David Holmgren’s farm “Melliodora” covers mere 2.5 acres, yet it took us 5 hours to briefly discuss its design and features.

The magnificent information and sheer quantity of it was too much for mummy-brained me, but of what I have heard and actually absorbed there is enough there to keep me going for an age!
