How can transition thinking can contribute to rebuilding plans in Christchurch? By posting ideas, big and small, by supporting and organising action and by letting others know about information and community response forums as we hear about them.

Hi Briar What a shame that someone with energy & love of growing has not got their patch! Have you thought of getting involved with a local Community Garden? We have a lovely one here in St Albans, and an organic gardening group connected to our…

Hi Jacinta, yes as someone else said, check out www.permaculture.org and have a look....I don't know what courses are going on currently in ChCh? Another good starting point is to get the original book on permaculture by Bill Mollison - I think…

Hola amigos, i am very familiar with the ACE model and at one point held great expectations for its role in mobilising people through sustainable living and transition related capacity building in communities. Ten recent government moves are short…

Hi Jacinta, yes as someone else said, check out www.permaculture.org and have a look....I don't know what courses are going on currently in ChCh? Another good starting point is to get the original book on permaculture by Bill Mollison - I think it's just called permaculture? Or another good one is The Earth Users Guide to Permaculture by a woman whose name I forget. Basically, Permaculture is humans living in a way based on ecology, the natural world around us. Harmony. I also teach permaculture lessons, but I'm assuming you're asking about no cost options? Enjoy! Kowhai

Hey Jacinta,

I can't remember when this potluck at Matts was; I thought Wednesday the 12th was said, but Weds is actually the 11th... I just need to clear it up, as I might be organising something for the opposite day (whichever one the potluck isn't).

Cheers,
Stacy

Hi Jacinta - Sorry for the long delay. Do you still have some horseradish available? If so, I will text you with my friend's address or I could come and collect it from you. All the best, Sarah

Hi Jacinta, welcome to the gaia university group! I´d be stoked to hear your thoughts on the role of tertiary education in coming decades as we move away from the industrial model, and a possible gaia university campus in nz. AT this point in time no campus exists in Aotearoa, however we are developing a team ready to get the ball rolling in NZ.
Gracias,
Grifen

Jacinta - thank you, that is extremely generous! I will check with my friend as I'm not sure about her number there and will text you on your mobile. Many thanks again, Sarah

Hi Jacinta - Wonderful, thank you. We are in St Martins/Opawa. I can arrange to come and collect or I have a friend who lives at Creekside in Shirley if you could leave it with her. I don't have a car but my husband has a motorbike, so I could get him to come and pick it up. Let me know what works best for you. - All the best, Sarah
