Homegrown Sustainability

One way to think about sustainable living is to look at what can be achieved on a normal suburban block. If individual households can be made sustainable then surely whole communities can too.

Since 1983 the Dervaes Family in metropolitan Pasadena California have steadily transformed their ordinary city lot into an organic and sustainable micro-farm. They provide 90% of their own produce and even have extra to sell at the local market. And they’ve produced an inspirational video to show what can be done.

Come along to the next Transition The Grove meeting watch the video and join the discussion about how we in the upper Kedron Brook valley can find sustainable ways to satisfy our basic needs. Find out what is already happening locally in areas like local food community health and renewable energy.

This would normally be a meeting of the Transition The Grove Energy Group but having acquired a copy of the DVD we would like to everyone to attend and bring a friend.

Regards
