Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Greater Dandenong Edible Gardens Project.  The project is co-ordinated by Paul Fogarty and Kim Glasgow from the Permablitz network.  The project is sponsored by the Dandenong Development Board, and supported by the City of Greater Dandenong, Sustainability Victoria and the Department of Planning and Community Development.  This site has been set up to help people get together and have fun learning about, designing and implementing suburban permaculture systems.  Our focus is edible gardens, and our ultimate aim is to make the suburbs edible enough such that should food become unaffordable, we don’t even notice.

Tess's Noble Park Blitz
Written by Paul Fogarty   
Wednesday, 19 November 2008

We met Tess at the "Grow Your Own Food" workshop in September - she had never grown her own food but was ready and courageous enough to set aside the time to get started and learn as she went.  THis blitz was about helping to kick start Tess' food growing journey!  (NOVEMBER UPDATE: Tess' herb and vege patch is going superbly and her food growing confidence has developed to the point that she led the installation of a vege bed at Dandenong Permablitz#8 - Great work Tess!)
