This was my first PD course in the Bega Valley and I can highly recommend them (I was so enthused about permaculture after it that I ended up doing an APT course for a year at Djanbung Gardens the next year!).
John Champagne, Hugh and Vries Gravestein and Phil Gall are a fountain of information each and the setting here in the Bega Valley is just beautiful. If anyone would like to know more I'm happy to pass on any info.....best places to stay, eat, swim etc

cheers Kathleen :o :) 8) :idea:
