Join us in Adelaide Botanic Gardens for a free picnic lunch to commemorate World AIDS Day. 

Observed every year on December 1st, World AIDS Day is our biggest opportunity to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS. Together, we'll discuss the latest advancements in treatment, reduce stigma that still exists for people living with HIV and remember those who have died from AIDS related illnesses. 

This special event is a collaboration between Positive Life SA, SAMESH and Thorne Harbour Health. 

All people living with HIV and their community and allies are invited to mark the occasion with us. This event is free, register to let us know you're coming.  

Fundraiser and garden tour in Willunga

Join us as we tour 3 very different permaculture home gardens and the community-developed Bassett St Reserve

What to expect

Of the two established gardens, Chris Banks's has a 'grandchildren and weaving' orientation while Jasper Simmons's has a 'year-round fruit and alternative accommodation' focus. The third garden is Charlotte Jantje's Y12 Steiner School Permaculture Project from last year. What she achieved designing and landscaping her parent's block from scratch is very inspiring. 

During lunch there will be a guided tour of Bassett St Reserve conducted by renowned landscape designer Evette Sunset. The all-inclusive program will culminate with herbal teas and a debrief at Jasper's house.

Raising funds for permaculture

All proceeds will go to supporting environmental and food sovereignty projects across developing South East Asia through Permafund. 

Lunch

BYO everything for a picnic. Food can be left in cars at the reserve where we will return for lunch and reserve tour.
