Descrição
I am on a journey - following my track in life - learning to work with the land to grow my own food and sustain a life that is connected with the earth and celebrates diversity - diversity of culture, language, religion, climate, landscape, species.... I am inspired by Indigenous peoples' understanding of, and relationship to, the earth. I love permaculture - it's way of understanding the patterns of nature and designing for sustainability and abundance.

Quais são suas habilidades?
I love working on the land; I grew up on a small property in the south-east of Australia, with sheep and chooks and dogs, a big veggie garden and an old orchard. I have done my Permaculture Design Certificate online with Geoff Lawton; did a one month internship with him at the Greening the Desert project in Jordan and am now a volunteer teaching assistant with his team for the 2022 online PDC. I did my second PDC at Aranya in India in August 2024.
I travelled to Iran and saw the many ways they used design and architecture to survive in a harsh climate using natural energies like solar, wind, earth, gravity. I have volunteered on organic farms in Australia and South Africa, from simple homesteading to market gardening and holistic management. I spent a year in 2020 at Navdanya Biodiversity Conservation Farm in north-west India, getting hands into the soil, learning about traditional Indian agriculture and saving seeds, with a focus on indigenous wheat and rice varieties. I returned to India again in 2022 and 2024 and have been visiting organic and permaculture farms, living in communities, working in natural building etc.

Robbin was a great addition to the project during her stay. From waking up the first so early for her meditation to working in the field without a word being uttered (Only when there's a question on the subject matter, mostly on soils which is her passion) to having great conversations on things related sustainability and her experiences was… read more

I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to spend time with Jay and the team at Basecamp, working on this project. I have a huge amount of respect for Jay - he is a passionate and dedicated advocate for the environment of his home town, SriLanka and beyond. And he walks the talk - it was such a great experience to be contributing to the… read more

Meeting Robyn was truly a highlight of our recent adventures. We affectionately referred to her as "Miss Indiana Jones."
From the moment we met her, it was clear that her love for nature runs deep. She approaches everything she does with an infectious passion and enthusiasm, and it's impossible not to be swept up in her energy.

What impressed us… read more

This has been on my wish list for ages, and I am so glad I finally got to visit. Raghav and Ansh are doing an amazing job - not only on the technical aspects of building the house, but in their ability to foster a community of diverse people, inspire creativity and generate a sense of joy and wonder at the world. I learned so much from them, and… read more

I spent three weeks with Vinay both at Malsain and his related project at Pithundi. I wish I could have stayed longer.

It is the most beautiful location, set on the side of the mountain. At night you see the twinkling lights from all the villages in the valleys below. On a clear day there is a stunning view of the snow capped peaks of the… read more

Robyn is an amazing human being. She is happy and jolly person and yet very sincere and considerate. She has an addictive laughter. Her knowledge and experience about permaculture has helped me in my farm. Robyn would take ownership of a project and inspire others. With her help we building a nursery, a fencing stone wall with an entrance. She… read more
