Nourished Landscapes is a SEQ-based permaculture design and consulting business passionate about creating thriving, productive gardens and resilient communities. The area, known to be in a “rain shadow”, receives a lot less average annual rainfall than the greater Brisbane region. We’re implementing a permaculture design whilst still working full-time jobs, with the aim to be off grid and more sel
f-sufficient. Different regenerative planning and management techniques are applied. There is an abundance of native trees and shrubs now compared to when we moved in, in March 2016. Different perennial growing systems, water harvesting earthworks, zero waste nursery/worm farm, a grey water garden, and wicking beds have been implemented. We also raise and harvest on-site our own ducks, geese, turkeys, chickens and pigs, and utilise hot and cold smokers. On the property are several native and European honeybee hives. Volunteer with us! Our volunteer mornings are designed to teach you sustainable growing methods and bring together like-minded people. We provide lunch and a chance to see our gardens, animals and grow systems. We host these volunteer mornings ever few weeks. We run different workshops on the topic of self-sufficiency, facilitate external workshops and provide food growing one on one coaching and property consultations.
