O que é isso?
Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
We're just starting out so you will be learning with us the foundations of permaculture, reducing our impact on the environment by reusing what we already have here and how we can improve our sustainability into the future. You can see how we manage our family and animals by being self sufficient and producing our own power (solar) and water (tanks), our goal is to build vegie patches and orchards to further establish our self sufficiency all while enjoying being surrounded by Australia's bushland.
