Permaculture Gathering at Narara Ecovillage

Permaculture Gathering at

Narara Ecovillage

Sunday 29th June: 10.30am -2.30pm

Narara Eco Living Network is pleased to invite your permaculture group to visit Narara Ecovillage for our inaugural Permaculture Gathering.

Narara Ecovillage Cooperative is an intentional community developing a leading-edge residential village at Narara on the Central Coast, NSW. Our village will blend the principles of ecological, social and economic sustainability; good health, business, caring and sharing and other options that may evolve for our well-being.

The principles of permaculture will play a large part in our approach, and the co-op has many permies who bring much wisdom and experience into the mix of people from all walks of life.

We welcome the opportunity and are very excited about showing you this beautiful 63 hectares that keeps over 90 species of birds very happy as well as much other wildlife and large conservation area. As a former horticultural research station there are also many and varied productive trees to see.

NEV has had the land for nearly 12 months and has made much progress with DA’s being lodged for the main Masterplan, with 33 blocks of land envisaged for Stage 1 residences and approval for a further 27 homes available in two groups of cluster houses. Members are currently developing a Permaculture Plan for productive plantings after holding a workshop with Peter Brecknock.

PROGRAMME

Gather at 10.30am for complimentary morning tea, then a 11am tour of the site, and we’ll turn the pizza oven on for a shared lunch; followed by a short presentation and discussion.

RSVP

Please circulate this to your members and rsvp to Linda Scott: living [at] nararaecovillage.com by Thursday 26th June.
