Thank You!

We just want to thank the people who turned up on Saturday for your intention to come and clean chairs or give to the land and us. We appreciate it.

We hope you enjoyed the change of plan and thank you so much to Fabio for a mini singing workshop, and running the karaoke for us all. Thank you also for some great songs amongst all our ‘trying’ smile.

Hope you enjoyed yourselves and we look forward to seeing you all again soon!

Love

The Lytton-Hitchins

The Chairs stayed in their places
Fabio gifted us with some great singing
and we all had fun joining in!

CHANGE OF PLAN: Rainy Day Programme

If we have been in the woolshed all day the evening programme will be cancelled. This will not be decided until 8am Saturday at the morning briefing.

If it clears at all during the day those who desire can go up to the waterless garden and help out.

If it is sunny then some of the outside paddock projects will be going ahead as described on the events page. This will be decided at 8am tomorrow morning at the woolshed briefing. The Sunday projects are cancelled.

February Events

Hello!

We have had a lovely ‘break’ and are loving this beautiful rain that we have been having over the last few days. We are excited about getting up and running with events for the year, starting new projects and finishing off old ones.

Now that the earth is a little damp we can begin planting trees again.

We are having our first Environment Day next Wednesday 6th February 2013. (Environment Day’s will be becoming regular again this month, check events page for details.)

We are having a chair-cleaning working bee on Saturday 9th February 2013.

Lincon and Philippa are having a day in the Waterless Garden on Saturday 16th February 2013.
If you would like to come along and give some time, effort and love to this project they will be excited to see you there!

We are planning to have regular weekends this year for varied activities. The first one will be Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd of March 2013. The weekend’s activities will include: tree planting, gardening, living systems, installing nature boxes and playing with barbed wire. (More information to come on this event, please check the Events static page for details closer to the time).

If you have a desire to join us for any of these events or future events check out the Events static page for details and listen/watch prerequisite material which can be found at the bottom of the Events static page.

We feel this is going to be a year full of exciting experiments, discoveries, investigations and fun!
