Our first B & M Landcare Activity for 2023 is planned for my place in Mt Martha in 4 weeks’ time on Sunday morning 23^rd April at 10 am to 12.30 pm.   This will be followed by a free BBQ if you can stay on for a bit longer.

Leeanne and I started off here in Century Dr, Mt Martha 25 years ago with a completely bare and flat 5-acre block.  We have slowly transformed this into natural looking indigenous bushland, with a large wetland, native wildlife, and various outdoors projects.

I’m looking forward to showing you around and covering any queries related to striving for a more sustainable lifestyle.  Of interest may be our passive-solar mudbrick home, various huts/workshops/abodes, large enclosed orchard, compost making process, vegetable patch with wicking gardens, waste vegetable oil processing plant (for the car), hot house, Hipcamp set up with silo dunny, large worm farm, a new apartment on the house, veggie garden studio,  biochar making, farm animal/grazing system, numerous pets and plans ahead for a big wildlife compatible barn. We’ll also do a few brief activities along the way.

I hope you can make it along and enjoy meeting others, and especially in welcoming our new members.

Date: Sunday 23^rd April 2023
Time: 10.00 am to 12.30 pm (followed by a free BBQ)
