Global permaculture educator and communicator Morag Gamble will be the special guest speaker at a Permaculture Noosa evening on Tuesday 1 February at Cooroy Community Hall.

Permaculture Noosa president Councillor Tom Wegener says: “Morag is a legend and excellent communicator. She will give us insights to starting our Olympic Gardens at the Cooroy Community Garden, as well as discussing her school where she can give credentials to those who hope to make a career in permaculture.”

Morag Gamble, founder of the Permaculture Education Institute, teaches permaculture educators and practitioners on six continents, from online to the outback, experiments with one-planet living at her eco-village home, mentors the global Permayouth and has supported over 1500 youth and women to access free permaculture education in refugee settlements through her charity, Ethos Foundation. She’s a permaculture writer, podcaster, YouTuber and blogger who speaks up for wellbeing of life on this planet as a planetarian activist.

Morag says: “Permaculture is an essential skill and way of thinking in this decisive decade for humanity – as we are faced with multiple crises including climate change and ecological disruption. Permaculture encourages us to all stand up and speak up for the planet, for social justice, for quality of life, and for life itself.”

Doors open 6pm, Tuesday 1 February, Cooroy Community Hall.
