I thoroughly enjoyed my greens tonight. It was my pleasure speaking with you Charles and meeting your talented daughter, although I couldn't find her blog online. County Bumpkin at heart? Wonderful programs you are running there. Congratulation and wishing you best for a long term successful future.

A most welcoming community has evolved with private accomodation for those who live onsite, public space for workshops, established & productive gardens for general public as well as allocating gardening space for Ashmore Community Garden members whilst they await Council approval for their own site. Wonderful & innovate techiques from people who have travelled & worked in exotic locations, with truly multicultural language and skill sets, make 270 Ferry Road (big red fence) the place to catch up with friends or make new ones. Many people have contributed to the making of 270 - they've all left their mark,some have moved on to other projects but there are always those wonderful volunteers who have made a home away from home & have become the best of friends spreading the Permaculture story wherever they go. Congratulations for creating such an inspirational place - a refuge where even the chickens & bees come home to roost every night. Roll on 2012 - so many plans - so little time..CONGRATULATIONS!
