Winter pruning workshop

The Daylesford Community Food Gardeners are running a free fruit tree pruning workshop this coming Saturday. BYO secateurs and/or loppers. 

What a fabulous opportunity for all of us to brush up on our pruning skills (under the skilled guidance of biodynamic orchardist Ian Clarke), while socialising and keeping warm. 

Hope to see you there!

Ecological check-up

Like to live more sustainably but not sure how to get there? Are you wondering how exactly your personal values align with your ecological values?

Your Personal Ecological Values Check-up is a workshop that explores your own values, giving an insight into the universal values that create the conditions for living sustainably, and looks at what living sustainably means to you in practice.

Maximum participants 15 people, so booking is essential. RSVP laurel@share.asn.au

Sandor Ellix Katz is a fermentation revivalist. His book Wild Fermentation (2003) and the hundreds of fermentation workshops he has taught across North America and beyond, have helped to catalyse a broad revival of the fermentation arts. A self-taught experimentalist who lives in rural Tennessee, the New York Times calls him “one of the unlikely rock stars of the American food scene.” His latest book, The Art of Fermentation (2012), is indeed a precious resource. Sandor's reputation precedes him and his fermentation workshops are highly sought after. See more at www.wildfermentation.com.
