Yandina Permaculture Garden Visit for TTN Supporters

Supporters of Transition Town Nambour enjoyed an instructive seed saving course given by Elizabeth Fekonia at the Yandian Permaculture Community Garden. Afterwards some 20 supporters gathered for lunch around the beautiful cob oven-hosted by Linda and Doug Mahoney from YP Garden- and roasted a wide range of different homemade pizzas in the cob oven. This was our first "hearts" (as in head, hands and hearts) event and it proved to be great fun. I hope others will join us on our next social and YP Garden intend to gather there monthly for their own meetings. Delicious!

Our next meeting is on Wednesday July 21st at the CWA Hall, Short Street Nambour at 7pm. Tea and coffee will be available, gold coin donation.
