There are many perks about Fairbridge. And there are even many more perks when it comes to working with the village. Although I am in Marketing and Public Relations whenever I step out of my office to interview someone or take photos for press releases I always end up learning something new about both my job and something totally different. And today it was what a permaculture garden is.
Nestled in the back corner of Fairbridge Village is where the Conservation and Land Management (CALM) trainees have been busy learning about how to manage the environment. As soon I arrived I was greeted by the hard working students who were busy gardening.
However I was soon to learn that they just weren't gardening. They were building a permaculture garden. They informed me that a permaculture garden is self sufficient. It is a method of producing food (I saw some snow pea and corn) in a closed loop that feeds it self.
I can't wait to taste the food and I am now inspired to grow my own veggies at home!
