If you happen to be in Sydney in August, you may like to attend the 2010
Organic Expo & Green Show. I will be participating in Speakers
Corner and am thoroughly looking forward to it.
Session Date
& Time: Saturday 21 August 2.15 - 3.00pm
Get Your Kid A School Kitchen Garden
Every child should have the right to learn about good food and nutrition
as basic education. They should also experience the fun and reward of
growing their own food. Following the judging of the veggies entered by
schools in the "Dig Your Dinner" competition, this talk will leave you
inspired to ensure your child has the same opportunities.
Leonie has pioneered a scheme of edible school gardens and has
successfully implemented this into 15 schools already. She will show:
How to get this happening within your schools; Discuss the importance of
this for your children's future; and show some lovely examples of her
work in action and the benefits the kids are getting.
Leone will be available for questions and signing her new book "Eat Your
Garden" afterwards.

Session Date & Time: Sunday 22 August 2.15 - 3.00pm
Edible School Gardens
"Food Glorious Food" Sang The Children and that was based on gruel in
the London workshops. Leonie Shanahan, School Kitchen Garden pioneer,
will get your kids shouting this from the rooftops by showing how easy
and fun it is to grow beautiful, tasty, and nutritious food.
You can't be too young to start and what is learned at school can easily
be transferred to home and a lesson passed on forever.
Leonie will be available for questions and signing her new book after
this session. Leonie's new book titled 'Eat Your Garden' will also be
available.
The Organic Expo & Green Show is Oceania Pacific's premier certified
organic & green lifestyle destination - celebrating it's 6th year
