I will be in Brisbane for the World Environmental Educators Conference from July 19 - July 24. I would love to get to know some Australians interested in traditional foods. As for myself we are starting an aquaponics farm at Seagoville High School Environmental Science Magnet and am hoping to demonstrate the system at the event. In addition, I will be holding a roundtable discussion about using social media and google docs, to promote and educate about sustainability and real foods.
