It's all about the compost because it is all about the soil!
To eat well, we need to grow our food well,
and to grow our food well, we need to love our soil well.

Dan, Dan, the gardening man has such a love for the soil:
the microbes, the bacteria, the fungi, the bugs, the minerals,
the worms and everything else that IS the soil and lives in the soil.

So many different types of compost -
discover about the many different varieties and
how to make the the best compost for your garden.

Meet the Gardener, Dan​

With a passionate love for ‘the garden’, and a deep connection for Mother earth, Dan heeds the call for meaningful connection and belonging in community through Permaculture. He has been pushing the ‘wheelbarrow’ of school & community gardens, community art, Landcare action programs, and social enterprise initiatives to engage people in community-driven cultural growth. Dan is award winning for the "Living Classroom" program, and his love of the land is palpable.
Inspired by fun, creative & participatory group processes and the effectiveness of learning by doing, Dan has been engaging culturally diverse groups in Permaculture since 2003. Dan and business partner Aaron Sorensen developed the nationally awarded ‘Living Classroom Program, engaging young people from K to year12 in life long learning through a school Permaculture program.
As well as the PDC training, Dan also engage adults, families, and school children in ongoing training and mentoring programs throughout the year. Dan leads a weekly class exploring the joy, art and insights of pioneers, past and present, to support fledgling gardeners to grow nourishing wholefood gardens, and renew the tradition and benefits of growing food together in community.

Check out Elemental Permaculture's website for more details about other courses interstate.

Dan and Aaron were awarded a "Recognition of Community Service" at the 2016 Australian Permaculture Convergence, for significant contributions to community over at least ten years through their ‘Living Classroom’ School Permaculture Garden Program.
