Transition Town Eudlo has a few projects underway - and you're welcome to get involved. We'd appreciate your help no matter how much time and energy you can put in - it all helps.
EUDLO SEED SAVERS NETWORK
We have the start of a seed saving group happening in Eudlo. A few people had done the Seed Savers workshop and others are already seed saving. We have registed with the official Australian Seed Saving Network and we'll learn as we go. Now is a bumper time in the vegie garden with lots of plants setting seed, so a great time to start seed saving.
EUDLO BEE KEEPERS COLLECTIVE
A few of locals headed off to Conondale last weekend to learn about bee keeping - so there is a great opportunity to for a Bee Keepers Collective. We can all have our own hives, but share in the major purchases such as an electric honey extractor... discussions are continuing.
EUDLO FOOD CO-OP
The Eudlo Food Co-op is on the backburner at the moment... sadly one of the key people involved in this great idea passed away suddenly and the job of starting the co-op seems a little overwhelming at the moment... more on this later when energies are right.
EUDLO STEAM TEAM
The steam team are still meeting regularly exploring how we might be able to use small-scale decentralised steam engines to provide energy in the future.
We're also working on waste solutions (managing putrecible waste on-site at home rather than it going to landfill), water solutions (best practice waterless composting toilets) and much more.
Our next meeting is on the morning of Sunday October 4 at 8.30am at Sweethearts' Cafe.
See you there,
