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.

In this fun, informative and free workshop with award winning sustainable gardener, Alan Shepard, we will look at new and old methods of successfully creating compost every time.

Making compost is easy and the benefits include reducing waste, helping the environment and enriching the soil.

Book a spot to learn how to make compost and get your soil summer ready, sustainably.
