Aaron SorensenWe’re really excited that Aaron Sorensen from Elemental Permaculture is to be our guest speaker at our October Online Information Evening.

Aaron is a Permaculture teacher and designer who has been working with community and school Permaculture gardens over the past 20 years.  He is passionate about inspiring transformative change in his local Illawarra community by connecting people with nature and creating resilient urban food systems.

Aaron works with Dan Deighton as Elemental Permaculture, where their work synergizes the professions of Landscape Architecture, Education & Creative Learning, Environmental Restoration, Community Development & the Creative Arts with the guiding ethics, principles & practices of the Permaculture profession.

In addition to Permaculture design on urban and rural properties, community gardens and school “Living Classrooms”, they also run Permaculture Design courses, Introductions to Permaculture and workshops in food forest design, soil building and advanced organic growing locally and abroad.

At our October meeting, Aaron Sorensen will talk about Establishing a Food Forest – including plant selection, placement, and care in the early years. There will be time for Q & A with Aaron after the online presentation.
