SUMMARY:RetroSurbia Book Club: Session 1 - Laying the Ground Work (Chs 3-4\, 14 & 34)
DESCRIPTION:We’ll be kicking off the book club by laying the ground work for each section of the RetroSurbia book\, crossing the Built\, Biological and Behavioural fields. The group will then decide on the topic and chapters for the next session.\n\n\n \n\n\nThe first session will cover:\n\n\n* Chapter 3: (Setting the scene) Where & how we live \n\n\n* Chapter 4: (Built field) How to assess a property\n\n\n* Chapter 14: (Biological field) How to assess a garden\n\n\n* Chapter 34: (Behavioural field) Decision-making\, interpersonal relations & conflict resolution\n\n\n \n\n\nThe plan is that we meet on a fortnightly basis\, alternating houses between Michelle’s place in Seddon and Elena’s place in West Footscray. To get to know each other and ease into the night\, we’ll start at 6.30pm with a cook-up. Bring whatever veg or bits you have and together we’ll make a soup or other dinner treat to share. If you can’t make it then\, that’s fine – come along as soon as you can. We expect to start the discussion by 7.30pm or so.\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nLet us know you’re coming so we can be sure to send you the address. You can email us or get in touch via our Facebook event and send a message to Michelle .\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\nIf you don’t have a copy of RetroSurbia yet\, you may be able to check out the book from one of the local libraries. You can purchase a copy for $85 plus postage from https://www.retrosuburbia.com/. (If there’s sufficient demand\, we can bulk buy and get a 35% discount – let us know asap if you’re interested in this option.)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\nIf you’ve any questions\, please email us at info@pow.org.au.\n\n\n \n\n\nThis event is hosted by Permaculture Out West in collaboration with Transition Town Maribyrnong. We’d love you to join these groups if you haven’t already\, and hope to also see you at RetroSuburbia Community.
