Justin Conducting a Compost Workshop
Gold Coast Permaculture is hosting a Thank You Day and Garden Open Day on Saturday November 3.
This day is to thank all our outstanding supporters on the Gold Coast such as Kurt of Tapping Solutions Australia, Sylvia, Lyn, Gold Coast City Council, some of its officers and Councillors and all those many others who have made our lives so much easier through their efforts in providing huge amounts of assistance to us over the last 18 months.
From 2pm until 5pm on Saturday November 3, we will be hosting free workshops and garden tours for the public and activities to amuse the children.
This will be preceded by a short ceremony and afternoon tea between 1-2pm to thank all those who have gone above and beyond the call of reasonable duty on our behalf and there are many.
Dan’s Herb Nursery will be a Hive of Activity on Thank You Day
Activities will include organic gardening, herbs and worm workshops and much more
No food will be supplied on the site but please pack a picnic and spend your afternoon at our Urban Farm in the middle of suburbia at 270 Ferry Road in Southport.
