Hi All,
The day has come and we are very excited. Tonight is the Community Dinner.
If you are planning to come and are able to turn up a bit early to help with setup we would be very grateful.
Venue access is at 4pm, so we only have an hour for setup, which will make every extra pair of hands so valuable.
See you tonight
Berit

Hi everybody.
The Community Dinner was an excellent and successful evening. It was lovely to meet people I had never met before and seeing people having the opportunity of making new local friends and sharing where they came from.

Well organised Community Dinner Team

Hilary

Thank you Hilary. 
Yes, a fabulous night. I met a neighbour from across the road five doors down who I've never met before! 
It was so great to see the community come together, around 70 people and even some musical cheer. The kids had a blast. 
We'll hold another one, hopefully in three months or so. If anyone wants to organise a similar thing for their community, please reach out and I'd be happy to mentor (not offering to run it though, just advise 😂). 
Thanks to the organising team 🙏
Sherryn.

Hi Hilary et al

Really great to hear your community event went so well and getting 70 odd people together is a triumph. Hopefully the permaculture and wider issues facing us will have reached new ears in a positive and constructive way. Good job all round.

Cheers Kerry x

We had at least one new recruit to our Permaculture HB mailing list 😁

Ditto all that - congratulations, all your hard work paid off! Here's hoping a raft of benefits ripple out😊

Brilliant guys I was wondering how the night would go 90% of me said it was bound to be a success of such to wore some people sitting up organising an attendance how could it be anything but look forward to going to the next one when we're back in town cheers stay warm stay safe stay healthy Roscoe
