Cost-of-living got you down? Want to save save money and live well? Come and learn life hacks gifted to us by Mother Nature.
Permaculture has been solving this problem for decades — work with nature, not against it, and your bills (AND stress) go down.
This workshop will explore ways of making your life more affordable, resilient, and easeful.
Our sustainable tech expert Barb will show you the simple, cheapest, and most efficient green tech savvy ways to save money at home.
You will leave the workshop with new skills to:
- keep your house warm in winter, and no cost
- hack your electricity bills to save you money
- master the tech of door and window frame 'draft sealing'
- stay cool in summer in the cheapest way such as window insulation from repurposed materials.
Still more to harvest in this workshop. Get ready to roll up your sleeves and make a small solar cooker. Take it home and start to cook the greener, and cheaper way.
About the facilitator: Barb is a retired doctor who has a long-term interest in self-reliance and simple technologies such as solar cooking. She was inspired during her overseas humanitarian work by the innovations of people who had very limited resources. She has been practising permaculture for over 30 years.
