I grew up in a tin shed on 30 acres near Pemberton, South-West WA as pretty much the only greenie kid in a logging town. (The whole town is now pretty much up for sale, since the old-growth logging industry downturn! Yay! Come buy land and help permie it up!)

Lived in Fremantle, WA for the past 8 years. Finished a BA in Media/Cultural Studies at Murdoch Uni, Perth in 2006. I've always been around Permaculture, but only really got into it after mysteriously becoming a gardening-addict out of nowhere in late 2009.

Completed Cert III in Permaculture and Teacher Training with Robyn Francis at Permaculture College Australia in 2011 and loved every minute!

Currently writing some kind of fun/musical/educational Gypsy-Cabaret-Permaculture-Roadshow with the hope of taking it around the country! :)

Permaculture Musical Cabaret Roadshow is coming together!

I've just been accepted onto the NEIS program to dedicate my time working on the Permaculture Musical Cabaret for the next 12 months. 4 songs completed and another one on the way!
