Appreciation for Village tour

Village residents are increasingly aware that
interest in our unique ecovillage project
supports a program of frequent tours by various
adults and young people - often seen looking
around the site. Many are fascinated by what we
are doing and take the ideas away with them to
classrooms and other groups who may well use many
of them in the future. We can be proud of this
potentially catalytic role - and it is certainly
appreciated by those who come to look. Here's
some great feedback received by Bridget from a
teacher after a recent tour by a design class
from Cabra Dominical College:
"To Bridget - Thank you so much for your preparation for the tour and your adaptability given the weather! [It was a wet day.] I know I am questioning many of my own lifestyle practices since, and I am sure it has impacted on the students in perhaps small ... ... but significant ways. I thought this voucher would be a good way to say thank you to Elizabeth and the Community for accommodating us."
This appreciative note came with a $30 book token which will be targeted by Bridget and Elizabeth to the Book or DVD of "Jamie at Home" by Jamie Oliver - a great source of inspirational ideas for cooking direct and fresh from a home garden.
