Meeting Tomorrow 30th July

Fellow Members and interested locals,   The next meeting of the Melton Sustainable Living Group Inc. will be held on Thursday 30th July from 7-9pm at the Melton Community Hall, Meeting room 4.   We will start off with a short presentation about "Saving money through energy efficiency".   I also would like to spend some time as a group brainstorming/thinking/talking about a project that will benefit  the community and promote Sustainable Living in the shire.  Now that we are a little larger in size, I believe it is time to kick off a project that will help keep us and other like minded people engaged for the longer term. Also, please feel free to pass this email to anyone who you think would be interested in attending.   Hope to see you all there.   Regards,   Gavin President

Fun at CERES Community Environment Park

Well, what a great day out we had on Saturday!  Only a few members came along, but we had a great time at CERES this weekend. There was Gavin, Michael, David, Kim and Ben and Liam.  Kim was taking the photos.  We spent about 3 hours walking around the Community Environment Park, and it was great fun.  Here are a few photos of our visit. Renewable energy galore! Now that is what I call a bakery.  Ben sampled a croissant and said it was yummy! This is where the Cafe gets most of its food from. Fresh organic fruit.  The labels even had the food miles listed on them. Organic Free Range chickens of the ISA Brown variety.  They had so much land to run around in.  About 2 acres I reckon. The cob oven was pretty cool.  It even had its own herbs growing on top of it.   With wonderful mosaics.  Kim wanted to give it a go.  There were mosaics all over the park and it added a lot of colour to a winters day.
