In the good and bad times, growing food together makes for a beautiful way to spend my days. . . @ceresbrunswick #rainbowchard #urbanfarm #organic #organicfarming #marketgarden

What a workplace. Birds chirping, children playing, sun shining. I still have so much to learn though.

The kids helping me and having breaks to climb and be pirates.

My 4-year-old daughter made me an on theme bookmark 😂

Proudly standing in front of the first of three nesting boxes I screwed together in an afternoon spent with friends at @veryediblegardens. It all started when Brendon from VEG told us he and Adam had been up defending a family property from the fires at Clifton Creek in East Gippsland. . Many of the habitat trees with hollows were lost as the fire got inside them. The property he was on now has the last remaining unburnt section of forest on the Nicholson River north of Sarsfield and is home to Koalas, Sugar Gliders and other possums, lyrebirds and so much more and they are now all squished into a small area. . Life creates the conditions conducive to life. Animals are great gardeners. If we nurture them, they will regenerate the land that all life needs. . So Brendon researched the specs for nesting boxes and recruited a bunch of us who were itching to help. . Dan Agius of 1423 Builders reached out to @provans_timber_hardware and they generously donated 20 sheets of structural ply! Dan spent a day and a half helping to cut the sheets. It felt great to be included in helping beyond giving money. It felt good to do it with friends. The process of regeneration is really important. . Collectively we have built 34 of 60 nesting boxes we have timber for. We will then take them to areas around Clifton Creek, Sarsfield, Bruthen and beyond and install them with the assistance of local groups and landowners. . . . . @danielagiusbuilder #vicfires2019 #vicfires2019 #eastgippslandfires #nestingboxes #regenerativeculture #habitat #regeneration #volunteering #woodworking #woodworkingwomen
