I grew up on an inner-city herb farm in Brisbane. These days I'm an ever-curious Permaculture teacher and practitioner and have specialised in organic urban food production and sustainability for the past 10 years.

Most recently I have been working with Cultivating Community in Melbourne; co-managing 20 community gardens on housing estates and working as a Community Food Systems Project Worker. 

I'm on the board of the Australian City Farms and Community Garden Network and a member of the newly established Australian Food Sovereignty Alliance.  

Things I'm excited about include composting, dancing, chooks and... my wonderful husband.
