Welcome

Welcome to permablitz.net - 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.  See below for the next permablitz and feel free to submit your own onto the calendar.  Check out photos of blitzes 1-6 here, and photos of more recent blitzes in our gallery.

Kooweerup Community Spirit (Review of Permablitz#41 on April 12 & 13)
Written by Paul   
Monday, 14 April 2008

The two-day Permablitz project aimed at building Kooweerup’s new community garden on April 12th and 13th was a huge success.  The 30-40 volunteers who came along managed to build nearly a quarter acre worth of no-dig gardens, prepare a quarter acre for a future food forest, build compost and mulch bays, plant out companion trees, attend loads of workshops, and eat, camp, work and enjoy our time together.  It was an amazing coming together or Kooweerup locals and Permablitz urbanites.  Some highlights included:

Follow up from Permablitz # 40 in Eltham Sunday April 6 2008
Written by dan   
Friday, 11 April 2008
We would like to thank everyone who came to the Permablitz at our place in Eltham on Sunday (see photos here! ). An enthusiastic effort from all has dramatically changed our bare backyard. It looks fantastic and is a testament to the power of co-operation action and goodwill. It is heartening to meet and work with the forward thinking people who are getting behind permaculture, a positive philosophy for the planet in so many ways. We would love to have been everywhere to get involved in the multitude of activities on Sunday but the day went so quick. However there's always the next permablitz in Brunswick to attend.
