Want a posh salad? Eating healthy is great for the heart but maybe not always easy on the pocket, especially if organic is on the menu.
But why buy when you can grow your own greens right in your own yard? Yes, permaculture is trending now for so many good reasons and you wouldn’t want to miss out. BONUS: If you’re thinking of listing “get healthier” or “lose extra kilos” as your resolutions this coming year, this one small change in your lifestyle could be the key to getting there, and then some.
Learn how to get those seeds to pop and have a greener home, straight from Melbourne’s top permaculture and gardening experts. Led by The Perma Pixie, the facilitators of this course will teach you the practical skills and everything you need to know to become a genuine Earth steward, from tree care and pond systems to composting and homesteading.
And who knows, if you’ve got the makings of a sustainable entrepreneur, picking up gardening could turn from a hobby into your very own moneymaker. Put your green thumb to work, grow more produce than you can consume, and sell the rest. Before you know it, everyone, including the environment, has become a bit healthier because of you!
