Hi Gail,

Jess hasn't had the time to play gardener on top of all the other enviro
commitments this year, and I'm spending quite a bit of time & energy there.
I recommend sending communications to the garden
elist<monashcommunitygarden at lists.aktivix.org>.
There are others who should be in on these conversations, both so they can
contribute now, and so as we finish up as students, people know who to
contact in the Uni & how things got done!

I assume this meeting is to discuss signage & a shed.  We're keen for both,
and I received an email from Jayne Firman to which I haven't yet replied as
I thought we'd been sufficiently descriptive via email last year; we're now
trying to come up with a very clear list of preferable construction
materials so Gary can easily make the sign.

I'm away Tues-Thurs but can be at Uni until mid-day next Friday.  I plan to
meet with Mark Doggett to inspect materials currently available in Building
56 on Friday morning, including metal which may be useful for our sign.

Thanks!

Tim

Hi Jayne,

Here was the original email we sent regarding what we'd like the sign to
look like, do, and be made of.  Included also is the example sign photo we
sent to Terry.  More detail in the reply to your email.

Hi Terry,

Lots happening in the garden at present.  Attached are:
* Sign outline
* Related logos
* Examples of pyrography (wood-scorching)

After *much* deliberation, we'd like a sign with a large waterproof
*glass-fronted
cabinet* (to fit at least 2 x A2).  This will allow us to keep information
up to date & sufficiently detailed with changing seasons, map, crops,
contacts, events, etc.  It could also allow us to display dried flowers,
seeds, etc.
A *whiteboard* space on the back would be very useful.

We think the following specs would work well (see attached outline):
- 130cm x 80cm
- 105cm x 65cm glass fronted cabinet, ~5cm deep, aligned bottom left

We'd also like to have *3 smaller metal signs*, A-frame sized, to stake in
at the key entrance points.  We envisage they would simply have 'Monash
Permaculture Garden' on them, perhaps with a small whiteboard/blackboard
space for advertising weekly meeting time (may change with timetables each
semester).  Their material could come from December Cleanup filing
cabinets.  Happy to chase.


*Sign material:*
Wherever possible, we would like the sign to incorporate
*reclaimed/recycled/sustainably
produced materials.*

- Ideally,* wood.*  e.g. currently procuring cypress for bed edging from
tree loppers.
*Natural look & permanence ties in with the garden's sustainability
message.  We'd like to get 'Monash Permaculture Garden' scorched into* *the
timber (pyrography, see pdf).  The other information could be scorched or
attached as plaques.*
*Would require a cork inlay in the glass cabinet*.

- Or, *sheet metal* from an old sign or December Cleanup furniture (e.g.
book case)
*While less aesthetically in keeping with the garden, a metal sign could
meet sustainability *criteria & also allow the use of magnets in the cabinet
area.


*Artwork, graphics, logos:*
Our 'Monash Permaculture Garden' logo is not currently finalised.  We wish
to incorporate the 'MPG' logo (see pdf), but haven't yet found a suitable
font or elaborated the design.  We would ideally like to have the cabinet &
sign backing prepared in advance of finishing with pyrography (see
attached), or we can send a digital logo for printing.

-Alternately, we could commission a Monash Permaculture Garden pyrography
plaque to be delivered and attached to the metal/wood sign at a later date.

Many thanks for your help, and patience, on this one.

Regards,

Tim

Hi Jayne (et al.!),

Sorry for the slow response, and thanks for your support of the garden.  I
hope you've received the forwarded email we originally sent re. Garden
signage.

Gail Morgan from the Monash Student Association is organising a meeting with
Gary and Peter Barnes which may happen on Friday, so if this email simply
provides background for that, then wonderful and sorry for filling your
inbox.  I haven't been told exactly what details we're meeting about, so
this may all still be utterly relevant.

I'm still not sure if the plan from the Uni's end is to run with the plan we
sent (forwarded to you) or if something more 'slick' is required.  I'm also
not sure if the Uni plans to help with A-frame sized signs to put at the
various entrances to the garden area, particularly the Nth-East & Sth-East
corners where the path runs between the Campus Centre & the garden.
Otherwise we will make these ourselves.

*Materials*
The original idea was to leave materials somewhat open to Gary's gleaning
abilities and initiative, though we're happy to help with sourcing, once we
know what second hand, recycled or reclaimed materials Gary can easily lay
his hands on and therefore what else there is to procure.
*
*We have, for example, recently aquired a lot of window glass which was
going to be thrown out.  We also have some corrugated iron off-site which
could be cleaned up and used as shed roofing and/or wall/screen (depending
on shed size & other materials used).  Mark Corea also kindly gave us some
wooden bench-slats which were being thrown out, to use as stakes or for
minor construction.

One of our garden members suggested that the bench-slats Mark gave us could
be fastened together to make the board for the sign.  Text could be engraved
into the wood, or sheet metal which could be bolted onto the sign.  The
slats may otherwise be useful as stakes for the sign or as shed-building
materials.

I'm also meeting with Mark Doggett from The Office of Environmental
Sustainability on Friday to inspect materials currently stored in Building
56 from the Uni 'cleanup'.

In summary...
*
We have:*
2nd hand glass
Timber slats
(Probably) sheet metal from old filing cabinets etc.

*Other possible materials for shed/sign could include:*
Screen from tea-tree/brush or 2nd hand lattice (shed)
2nd hand corrugated iron (shed)
2nd hand timber (shed, sign)
Timber from arborists, not commercial forestry (shed, sign)
e.g. cypress we used for garden bed edging
FSC certified timber (shed, sign)
re. treated timber, we are running an organic garden, so if the sign is to
be located near growing areas, we will want to avoid potential sources of
leaching.  If attached to the shed nearby, the situation may be different.
An old sign from around uni, cleaned & reprinted for us (sign)
2nd hand perspex for constructing an alternative to the glass cabinet (sign)
An old whiteboard (sign)
waterproofed on the back & printed with 'Monash Permaculture Garden' on the
front, to which we could attach laminated posters with magnets

*Shed* *Location*
David, Mark and I have identified a few potential shed locations, but a
final location has, as far as I understand, never been confirmed.  A shed
for large items/materials on the back of the Chem Lab Gas storage block
would be useful, provided we also had another spot right at the garden for
commonly used tools.  This decision may decide the viability of the [good]
idea to attach signage to the shed.

We've recently realised our current make-shift shed can probably be modified
to fit snugly and discretely under the bench at the garden, and we have
plans to build more benches with storage to be housed on site where our
gazebo/pergola is planned.

If you could possibly address further communications to the garden
eList<monashcommunitygarden at lists.aktivix.org>,
it will help us (the gardeners) with improving communication & institutional
memory.

Many thanks, and sorry for the *long *email.

Hi all,

Have you heard about this?

It was started last year by Permaculture Sydney and has gathered much
interest for this year.

Would anyone be able to  help plan something?
Is anyone willing to open their garden(s) for the public to visit?
What about permablitzes? Film(s)?

We need to get onto this quickly if we want to participate. (especially as
some of you may not get this for a few days with school holidays...)

Regards
Miriam.

*In this email....*

1. eNews
2. easy blog posts (2.5 ways)
3. Facebook n Twitter
4. eList archive onto the blog?
5. photos
*__________________________________________________*
*
1.  eNews* vs *spam*
How you do feel about turning this eList into a weekly eNewsletter, and
creating a new one for discussions?  That way people who just want to find
out when to come along, and how to [insert random gardening trivia/skill
here] could get involved without having to deal with our organisational
spam.

If this is what people want, I'd love to show someone how to do it.

We could try setting up a way of automatically generating most of the email
content in future (from blog posts & calendar, etc).  For the moment,
though, it'd be great to have someone or a couple of someones to help write
it (perhaps on a roster).  Any volunteers?  No perma/horticultural or techie
knowledge required.
*__________________________________________________*

*2. Easy blog posts*
*
PressThis bookmarklet*
Method 1:
Select & drag the highlighted text below up to your bookmark toolbar (under
your browser address bar) to get a button you can click to bookmark any page
directly onto the eatMonash blog.  You can rename the button by right
clicking on it and selecting 'properties'.

javascript:var%20d=document,w=window,e=w.getSelection,k=d.getSelection,x=d.selection,s=(e?e():(k)?k():(x?x.createRange().text:0)),f='
http://eatmonash.wordpress.com/wp-admin/press-this.php

{{{{{{{{{OR}}}}}}}}}

Method 2:

Drag the PressThis link on the tools
<http://eatmonash.wordpress.com/wp-admin/tools.php>section of the eatMonash
wordpress page.

You'll need to login.     * username:  eatmonash     password: P3r3nn1al*
*

Post-by-email*
Here's how to post to the eatMonash blog by
email<http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-by-email/>.
Just send them to this address <nohi231bona at post.wordpress.com> (
nohi231bona at post.wordpress.com)
*__________________________________________________*

*3.  Facebook n Twitter*
I've taken the liberty of creating an EatMonash Twitter
account<http://twitter.com/eatmonash>,
so blog posts can automatically reach a wider audience.  If anyone thinks
I'm an idiot for doing this, or just has feedback, questions or ideas, I'd
love to hear from you.
*Login is eatmonash.  Password is P3r3nn1al*  (same as for wordpress)

Facebook's a little more tricky (can't autofeed from blog to group, do we
want a fan page? Would that just be for the garden or for the wider push for
an edible campus ...etc.)  Would love to chat with y'all about this stuff.*
**__________________________________________________*
*
4. eList archive onto the blog?*
Do we want to start putting our emails up on the blog for the world to see?
This way people can look back in time and see why certain decisions were
made, and who to speak to about them...
My gut feeling is that it's best to just put the eNewsletter up there, and
have a link to the existing eList
archive<https://lists.aktivix.org/pipermail/monashcommunitygarden/>on
the Garden Docs page (done).
*__________________________________________________

5. photos**
*Thanks a bunch to Jess for taking some awesome
photos<http://www.facebook.com/photo_search.php?oid=148722887346&view=all>on
Thursday.  Check them out!
Do we want to keep doing photos through facebook, or start using Flickr or
something so we can embed them in the webpage?
*__________________________________________________*

Thanks for reading!  Look forward to your feedback.
A happy healthy exciting break to you all!

Hi Brett,

When is Built Environment scheduled to meet?  Details are missing from
the schedule
of meetings<http://fsd.monash.edu.au/environmental-sustainability/committees/schedule-meetings-2010>
.
I'm wondering because it'd be great propose a 'campus food plan' to inform
current master-planning and to incorporate more food production/edible
landscapes into existing ESD strategy.  We've flagged this idea with Mark
Corea and I'm personally very keen to work on a proposal document with
background information and potential strategies for integrating food into
the built environment.  Any suggestions on how to best go about this would
be wonderful.  I suspect it's a discussion that will probably have to happen
accross Sustainable Food & Built Environment.

compost eList re. content/discussions for SoS 2010.  It's below...
I also recommend that you jump on the eList by sending an email

Hello darlings!

Haw haw, hope you've all been having a deelightful year. :)

Well, SoS has come out of nowhere and it's time to start planning!

Has anyone started thinking about chats for the working group meeting?
It's on around 2pm on Wednesday 9 July. Please let me or Kathryn (
kathryn at ...<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Co_ops_Worms_n_Compost_ASEN_WG/post?postID=C1618xMBbCNBBLW0m_la_mnijh1Lal8laSoGuxZOt9bbdVs5cTwNAYiv10KbrMJPEFdby7NNEQDTUmNsi_k>)
know if you are able to help pull together the
agenda and/or facilitate.

I guess the agenda could include
- report backs from coops, successes, struggles, happiness, community love
- update on the wiki and resource sharing
- plans for the rest of the year
- (cross coop networking/socialising?) :D

I'm not sure, please post ideas!!

I'd also like to start talking about food campaigning generally. eg,
GM crops being planted in NSW and Vic now! Gettin info out about
agriculture and climate change; about agricamps and poverty; about
soil degradation, pollution, fishery collapse, etc etc etc.

There are plans for an open space strategy session:
(from Ange)
A forum called "Booting GE out of Australia" is already on the program
10:45 to 12:15 on Sunday 6th July. I am planning to have an open space
to discuss and plan campaigns and actions that could occur on
university campuses, particularly in Sydney. I plan for the open space
to be on Monday 7th of July at 3pm.

I encourage some of us at least to go to this, and we could report
back to working group on Wednesday?

Does the food coop working group have capacity to campaign more
conventionally? Would it weaken and disperse energy or could it make
us stronger? Or is it outside the scope of the working group?

So yes, don't be afraid to post glorious ideas! Would be good to have
a quick bit of energetic email dialogue before the conference.

Hurrahs.

Love,
Tessa xx

Thanks Tim for the information.  Gary I will leave this to you to discuss

Re: Permaculture sign



Hi Jayne (et al.!),

Sorry for the slow response, and thanks for your support of the garden.  I 
hope you've received the forwarded email we originally sent re. Garden 
signage.

Gail Morgan from the Monash Student Association is organising a meeting 
with Gary and Peter Barnes which may happen on Friday, so if this email 
simply provides background for that, then wonderful and sorry for filling 
your inbox.  I haven't been told exactly what details we're meeting about, 
so this may all still be utterly relevant.

I'm still not sure if the plan from the Uni's end is to run with the plan 
we sent (forwarded to you) or if something more 'slick' is required.  I'm 
also not sure if the Uni plans to help with A-frame sized signs to put at 
the various entrances to the garden area, particularly the Nth-East & 
Sth-East corners where the path runs between the Campus Centre & the 
garden.  Otherwise we will make these ourselves.

Materials
The original idea was to leave materials somewhat open to Gary's gleaning 
abilities and initiative, though we're happy to help with sourcing, once 
we know what second hand, recycled or reclaimed materials Gary can easily 
lay his hands on and therefore what else there is to procure.

We have, for example, recently aquired a lot of window glass which was 
going to be thrown out.  We also have some corrugated iron off-site which 
could be cleaned up and used as shed roofing and/or wall/screen (depending 
on shed size & other materials used).  Mark Corea also kindly gave us some 
wooden bench-slats which were being thrown out, to use as stakes or for 
minor construction.

One of our garden members suggested that the bench-slats Mark gave us 
could be fastened together to make the board for the sign.  Text could be 
engraved into the wood, or sheet metal which could be bolted onto the 
sign.  The slats may otherwise be useful as stakes for the sign or as 
shed-building materials.

I'm also meeting with Mark Doggett from The Office of Environmental 
Sustainability on Friday to inspect materials currently stored in Building 
56 from the Uni 'cleanup'.

In summary...

We have:
2nd hand glass
Timber slats
(Probably) sheet metal from old filing cabinets etc.

Other possible materials for shed/sign could include:
Screen from tea-tree/brush or 2nd hand lattice (shed)
2nd hand corrugated iron (shed)
2nd hand timber (shed, sign)
Timber from arborists, not commercial forestry (shed, sign)
e.g. cypress we used for garden bed edging
FSC certified timber (shed, sign)
re. treated timber, we are running an organic garden, so if the sign is to 
be located near growing areas, we will want to avoid potential sources of 
leaching.  If attached to the shed nearby, the situation may be different.
An old sign from around uni, cleaned & reprinted for us (sign)
2nd hand perspex for constructing an alternative to the glass cabinet 
(sign)
An old whiteboard (sign)
waterproofed on the back & printed with 'Monash Permaculture Garden' on 
the front, to which we could attach laminated posters with magnets

Shed Location
David, Mark and I have identified a few potential shed locations, but a 
final location has, as far as I understand, never been confirmed.  A shed 
for large items/materials on the back of the Chem Lab Gas storage block 
would be useful, provided we also had another spot right at the garden for 
commonly used tools.  This decision may decide the viability of the [good] 
idea to attach signage to the shed.

We've recently realised our current make-shift shed can probably be 
modified to fit snugly and discretely under the bench at the garden, and 
we have plans to build more benches with storage to be housed on site 
where our gazebo/pergola is planned.

If you could possibly address further communications to the garden eList, 
it will help us (the gardeners) with improving communication & 
institutional memory.

Many thanks, and sorry for the long email.

Hi Tim and Jess, 

David Pawley has asked me to liaise with you regarding a sign  and shed 
for the Permaculture Garden on Clayton campus.  Gary Morgan, the 
sign-writer needs to know specifically what materials you can and can't 
use (e.g. treated pine) so that he can meet with the builder and get a 
quote for the items. Otherwise we need to confirm pre-fabricated materials 
can be used. Gary and David have discussed the possibility of having the 
sign as one side of the shed.  Discussion with MSA regarding joint funding 
of these items needs to occur. 

Please email me the list of approved building materials and I will forward 
them to Gary to arrange a quote.  Once we have the quote, I will arrange a 
meeting with yourselves and Terry Hogan to discuss further.

I think the idea of reducing "spam" is great. To make it even more
efficient, I think it would be a good idea to roll this email list into the
Environment and Social Justice one, and have plenty of garden stuff in the
Environment and Social Justice eNewsletter.
At the moment, I am writing the Environment and Social Justice eNewsletter
and am happy to continue doing this (as I am getting paid for it). So if
people are happy with this, I am happy to get the list sorted and then all
you need to do is let me know what you want me to put in the newsletter.

Message-ID: <m2g48f452561004081608j54aecc8by1485107779589ea6@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Mark & Mark,

I'm acutely aware than construction materials for various garden projects
are accumulating on site, and realise this is not doing fantastic things for
the garden aesthetic.  Materials include glass & clear plastic roller door
for greenhouse, lattice, timber, some pots, insulation for 'solar cooker'
project, newspaper for sheet-mulching, etc..  I do not envisage that this
would include any tools or materials like straw.  Is there an interim space
where we can store these things before acceptable (aesthetically, OH&S)
'on-site' storage is completed?

Mark C - you mentioned quite a while ago that there should be space among
Grounds storage somewhere?
Mark D - I know the big Alfred load's going to fill up building 56, is there
likely to be extra space for some garden materials?

Assistance with transporting materials to a relevant location could also be
very useful.  The gardeners will be more than happy to provide manual labour
for the move, but taking glass panels from one end of campus to the other by
hand could prove a little difficult and *very* time consuming.

Many thanks,


Tim

gday tim

no worries. I reckon we can store the stuff in building 56 for at least the
short term (4 - 6 weeks) but I can't guarantee that.

I agree: let's not try to carry glass across campus . If we let people do
that, they'll be running with scissors, playing with matches and throwing
stones before we know it.

So, to move the items safely, particularly the glass, I recommend that MSA
book the flat bed truck, which is managed by Arthur Brent, the cleaning
manager (Arthur.brent at adm.monash.edu.au). You'll need to provide some labour
of course, and I am not sure about costs but Arthur will be able to advise.

Finally, we can give you access to building 56 any week-day, so I recommend
that once you've booked the truck let me or better yet, Sue Powell (cc'd to
this email) know when you need access to 56, and we'll sort it out.

cheers

In coming decades the world faces the risk of major regional food crises
leading to conflicts and mass refugee movements. This is driven primarily by
emerging scarcities of all the primary resources ? land, water, oil,
fertilizer and research and development - required to produce food, at a
time of changing climate. The lecture will outline key factors in emerging
global food insecurity and propose some solutions.
