We're very excited to announce that RECAP will be hosting the Beyond Organic NZ tour on Saturday, 21 March, starting at 1:30 p.m.. Stefan Sobkowiak and James Samuel have generously agreed to make an extra stop in Ashhurst for an afternoon discussion and presentation, including some clips from Stefan's high-quality film on his permaculture orchard. The discussion will address orchards, food forests, and food distribution networks such as Ooooby (Out Of Our Own Backyards), co-founded by James Samuel and Pete Russell (who will be joining in this event).

Tickets $20 at the door.

The Ashhurst presentation will be at the Village Valley Centre on 21 Guildford St. There is an additional entrance from Cambridge Ave. (Ashhurst's main street), right next to St. Mary Magdalene's Anglican Church and across the street from the RSA and Ashhurst School.

The Beyond Organic NZ Tour includes many other events through New Zealand, including orchard workshops in Otaki and the Wairarapa. See the tour web site for a full calendar and more information on events.
