Movie night: The Need to Grow

Monday 10th of February 2025 6:30 pm

Join us on Monday 10th February for an environmental film that gives the world hope.

The UN estimates that at current rates of depletion, we have fewer than 60 years of soil left on Earth. It’s not too late to change the future and save the planet and people we love – if we act NOW.

The New to Grow takes you inside the hearts and innovation of three very different leaders.

  • An 8 year-old girl challenges the ethics of a global organisation
  • A renegade farmer struggles to keep his land as he revolutionises resource-efficient agriculture
  • A visionary inventor faces catastrophe in the midst of developing a game-changing technology

The film will make you laugh, make you cry, give you chills, and inspire you to participate in the restoration of this beautiful Earth. Get tickets here. 

After the film we will get a brief presentation from local resident Katrina who has transformed her 400m² ornamental garden into a vibrant permaculture food garden.

This productive urban space provides her family with seasonal vegetables, fruits, and herbs, with plenty left over to share with friends and the community.

In tune with the Noongar six seasons, Katrina gathers seeds from open-pollinated, organic, and heirloom varieties, distributing them throughout Perth to inspire others to grow their own food.

Katrina will share her insights into cultivating vegetables and fruit in small spaces and reflect on what has shaped her connection to food and the land in an urban environment.
