PNB ANNUAL SOUP AND FILM NIGHT

Film Premiere: Bungan Edible Sanctuary: A Videographic Journey

Welcome back to our in person public meetings starting from June at Narrbeen Tramshed.

Bungan Edible Sanctuary is a unique example of organic and sustainable living in action, located along the coast of the Northern Beaches, Sydney.

This original video captures the examples of the large scale vegetable gardens, edible food forests, a seed raising greenhouse, chickens, native honey bees and an aquaponic system from a converted swimming pool stocked with native fish. Bungan Edible Sanctuary spans three properties all linked by their gardens and the desire to live sustainably.

The surplus food from the ample produce in these backyard gardens is shared locally on a food wall at the front of the property for the neighbours to come and pick up.

The video shows ‘compost in action’ with worm farms, composting, and black fly larvae to process the three household’s organic waste, supplying nutrients for the soil.

This is an outstanding example of permaculture principles in use for growing food. Aquaponics, bees and keeping chickens in a loop system provides a complete sustainability for its residents. 

We will be joined by Bungan Edible Sanctuary residents, Johanna and JJ Farmer, and filmaker Tashi Martell for an interactive Q&A.

Noting new COVID restrictions of 1m sqyure regulation for peopel nto in the same household, maks need to be worn, hand sanistiser will be available.
