Description
" Permablitz: An informal gathering involving a day on which a group of at least two people come together to achieve the following:
- create or add to edible gardens where someone lives
- share skills related to permaculture and sustainable living
- build community networks
- have fun
Each permablitz is part of a longer process including a pre-blitz design visit or visits, prior organisation of materials needed for the blitz, and after the blitz follow up visits to see how people are going with their new gardens. This means that permablitzes stay true to permaculture design, which is always an extended process in which all action is informed by prior observation and reflection.
The permablitz network is currently entirely volunteer, and based on the principle of reciprocity. Most people come to blitzes because they are fun and you learn something. However, once you've been to a few blitzes, we can help you organise one where you live.This site is based in Melbourne, Australia. It is set up to facilitate others to get permablitzes happening and to document permablitzes to date as a resource for others. There are permablitz networks starting elsewhere, so if you live outside Melbourne contact us and we'll try to put you in contact, or we can help you be the one to get them off the ground where you live."
