One of my favourite blogs is Richard and Ally's
Adventures in Urban Sustainability - I am always inspired by their journey converting their average urban block in Wollongong into a thriving food forest.
Well, thanks to a heads up by Bronwyn (
thanks!) I have just discovered that they are featured in an article in the current issue of
Notebook magazine (April 2009). I don't buy women's mags but I made an exception this time LOL.
**Update: you can read the PDF of their article
HERE.**
So if you happen to know someone with the magazine, or your budget stretches to a purchase (sadly for those of who would just like to have a peep in the newsagent's, it's enclosed in a plastic sleeve this month), it's well worth the read (and not just because they were kind enough to mention my blog in their article! LOL).
Well done Ally and Rich, it's a wonderful article - very inspiring. I hope many more people will be similarly motivated to start travelling down the same path in suburbia thanks to you guys :-)

Thanks so much for your lovely comments Julie! We feel the same about you and your family - your journey in sustainability is such an inspiration to us! We LOVE your blog, and are glad you're pleased it got a mention in the magazine!
Our most recent blog on our website with 'now and then' shots has a link to a PDF version of the article that appears in Notebook - so people can download the article on line if they'd like a squiz.
Cheers and thanks again!

What a fantastic Blog...so inspiring.
Wooohoo - go you :) About to check the other blog out!
Hi Ally and Rich and CM,
Thanks for the link! I'll go add it to my post :-)
Cheers, Julie
Thanks for reminding me about Happy Earth, Julie. I just love looking at what they've done. Totally wonderful and highly inspirational. I've just sent off the details of their blog to our Permaculture website fellow so he can look into including details of it on our new website.
And, in case they come back, thanks to Ally and Rich for blogging all that hard work and the fabulous results. Gosh, do I need permission to put mention of it on our new site? I'd better ask that first, hadn't I??
