Dear {usertag:name}

Welcome new member Sharon Robinson from Ferny Hills. Sharon has nominated her interest in the Food & Gardening Health Environment Local History The Head The Heart and Towards Zero Waste Subgroups.

Sharon has recently moved to Ferny Hills and attended an edible garden workshop and is interested to meet others and be involved in a community garden.

We’ve put her in touch with The Hills District Community Garden Group which is actively progressing two projects at the moment: the edible school garden at the Patricks Rd State School Preschool and a much bigger site in the park of Selkirk Crescent in Upper Kedron (BCC) which is progressing through the approval stages.

Our President John is working hard at the moment to do a complete new approach to Transition The Grove’s website. It will hopefully be available from after the New Year. The new approach is to have all the information on the website brought together by topic.  For example on the Homepage there will be buttons for Food & Gardening Energy Environment Health…   When you click on the Health button for example it will take you to all the content and site tools related to Health locally all in one place.

If you ever have suggestions about how to make the website more usable to you and the local community email them through to webmaster@transitionthegrove.org.au 

We have an incredably competent helpful Webmaster! In fact he is rapidly establishing a reputation for building websites on a voluntary basis all over this community. Everyone does their bit to make the world work better in their own way and good websites are a way to network our community together better and have us all speaking more and more to each other like microrhyzal fungi!

If we don’t see you before Christmas happy Christmas.  If someone would like to take on organising a Christmas party or gettogether before then that would be great.

Cheers
Anne Tennock

Subgroup Coordinator
