Congratulations to Kim and Brett Brown who won the ticket to the CelebrATE festival. Here is what Kim had to say:
Yes!! Master Banjo (my son) and I went to CelebrATE together and we had an absolute ball.  Learning, singing, dancing, camping and sharing with like minded people – does it get any better than that?  Highlights were the farm tour with Tom Kendall, the Food Forrest walk, talk with Geoff Lawton and the music.  A surprise for me was learning about biogas, making gas for the kitchen from manure and greens – very interesting.  Banjo’s favourite was The Food Forrest walk with Geoff and the chicken workshop with Amanda Moore.  We highly recommend attending CelebrATE next year and getting some great information specific to our bioregion from people well established in the area.
Many thanks to Tom and Zaia for donating the ticket, we are very grateful to have won the ticket through YCG, without the windfall we would not have been able to attend.
