Ecological Literacy through Permaculture Education … what do those words evoke in you?

My first guest on the show is Bunya Halasz, he’s inspired by cultures that evolve creative practices of sustaining their material needs, in a manner of deep reverence for their natural environment and all its life forms.

Through the lenses of Permaculture, Regenerative Agroecology and Successional Agroforestry, Bunya works as a designer, educator and gardening mentor.

His work supports individuals and communities to grow food, fuel and fiber within ecologically regenerative systems, as well as facilitating pathways of knowledge and skill sharing through courses and traineeships. 

We’re going to hear more aboutThe Living Agro-Ecology Course, - August 21 to November 9 2025 at The Living Classroom @The Farm, Byron Bay.

Crafted by Bunya, along with many other local, cutting edge, ecologically regenerative food producers. It’s aimed at anyone - or anyone you know - who is interested in Deeply Regenerative and Resilient Food Production.

The collective of cultivators, grow food production systems that are informed by the processes of our local ecology. It’s about deepening our connection to our local ecology, and the community of earthy people finding their role in our ecosystem, as healers and providers.

In the second hour: Anthea Amore & Jay Richardson wear many hats but the ones they’re donning for the second half of the show are made of the earth.

They’ll both be here in the lead up toThe North Coast Mud Trail, back for its 13th year, celebrating the region’s vibrant ceramics community with a self-drive weekend event across the beautiful Northern Rivers.

Held on 16 and 17 August 2025, the event invites art lovers, collectors and curious adventurers to explore 22 open studios, featuring 33 local ceramic artists across studios in the Byron, Ballina and Lismore Shire.
