Hi there,

Sooo happy to see Permablitz taking off.
Ross and i would like to get a Perth section going. We do designs and implement them on PDC’s, but would like to do a Permablitz for folk on a regular basis.
We have lots of people willing to work towards this idea.
Can somebody please send us some information to help us get started.

There was a good article in Sunday’s Herald Sun (Melbourne) about permablitzes:

Am impressed by the community spirit of spreading and sharing something good for mankind and earth. Well done…hope this spirit will be caught in Singapore. At the moment there is no permaculture center as far as i know as it is not an agriculture base nation, hence the nation is so dependent on food import from other countries.

I am presently residing in Malaysia and into SEED program which stands for Sustainable Ethno Eco-tourism Development. Am working towards applying premaculture principles in our business network as well as into our homes. Much to learn indeed and it is indeed life changing….

cheers

Hi, I’m wondering if you know of any permablitz groups up on the gold coast. I’ve just moved here and would love to participate in this, both to learn and find community, but also later to transform my garden (currently paved over with turf).

Here is some info on a group that started Permablitzing in the U.S. a few years back. They call them Grow Food Parties. There are now a few groups in California following this model. I am sure there are more too. This is the only one I know about.

And their YouTube videos:

In Sydney there is also Permaculture North. They hold a Permabee once a month in a members backyard (once they have worked in two Permabees).

I love it! Let the concept spread!
