From the outset, Groundswell envisioned a community garden surrounding the Community Greenhouse. In 2010 work began on this project and the principles of permaculture were a great fit. Permaculture is a holistic approach to design allowing the creation of a sustainable and regenerative system which is based on science yet guided by ethics. Theories on design surrounding; shelter, energy, waste, water and food production are applied as proactive long term solutions to satisfy our basic needs.

Dale Wilker, aka the ‘soil whisperer’ was one of the founding members of Groundswell Network Society and responsible for the state-of-the-art greenhouse whose technology was well ahead of its’ time. His passion to grow food in a way that is healthy for people and healthy for the environment has led a huge change through the valley.
