We were commissioned in 2016 create a Permaculture Masterplan for Kowhai Grove, a project run by the Malcam Trust in Dunedin. Annika Korsten is directing the project, primarily as a base for student of the Hands On program that she runs, which introduces 16-24 year olds to farm and horticulture work. Annika envisages other groups getting involved with specific aspects of the project as it develops – contact her if you want to get involved!
Permaculture teacher Peta Hudson fascilitated gathering insights from previous program participants and we pulled this together with Annika’s ambitious vision for a thriving diverse organic horticulture centre.
