Another successful Permaculture Course was held at Steward Comminuty Woodland from the 1st to the 16th August. 16 students attended and all have gained a permaculture design certificate. The course was tutored by Peter and Aranya with some sessions by community members.
We raised nearly £250 towards are planning appeal costs on a great comedy evening held at the local pub, The White Horse, on 10th August. The acts included Craig Campbell, Lee Canterbury and Aaron Custance and they went down a treat. I haven't laghed so much in a long time!!
Despite the awful weather we had on Saturday the 6th of June we had about forty people come and visit to see the community, our dwellings, gardens and renewable energy systems (and of course for the tea and wonderful cake!). Thank you everyone for coming and braving the rain and thank you for the donations made on the day. We also had a small celebration in the evening after the open day to celebrate our planning success.
We received a phone message this afternoon from Andy Goldring, one of our planning appeal witnesses, telling us we might want to check our email. On checking the email, we were delighted and overjoyed to find the decision from the Planning Inspectorate granting us permission. We have been granted temporary planning permission for 5 years (until 30th June 2014) with conditions. Read the press release or more on our planning pages.
Our Planning Appeal Public Inquiry took place from 28th to 30th April 2009 at the King George V Sports and Community Centre in Moretonhampstead. We felt our case was well represented. More details here.
