Further Information

Summer?
We all know that summer is a fantastic time…fun, friends, family. But it can also be the season when we have our biggest impact on the environment. Summer is not just about footprints on the beach, we’re often spreading our carbon footprint as well, with energy, water and waste consumed or produced in greater amounts. But summer can be both fun and sustainable. Sustainable Summer@CERES EcoHouseworkshops focus on helping you live more sustainably, not just over summer but for the rest of the year as well.

Where and When?
All Sustainable Summer@CERES EcoHouse workshops are at the CERES EcoHouse, 8 Lee Street, Brunswick East.
Workshops run between November 2009 and March 2010, on Wednesday evenings and/or Saturdays. Participants are encouraged to attend multiple sessions.
The program is free, but places are limited so book early.

As well as access to specific workshops, participants will also get:

  • Membership of the Sustainable Summer@CERES EcoHouse Group Site, a secure online forum for sharing stories, ideas, inspiration and information!
  • A simple household self-energy audit program to measure and record household energy usage.
  • The opportunity to participate in Zero Carbon Moreland.
  • The chance to meet like-minded people and to help and inspire each other towards sustainability.
  • Concession rates to a range of other CERES Workshops, Short Courses and CERES Nursery Workshops*

*Participants who attend 3 or more workshop sessions will be eligible for an eco-prize valued at up to $200.

As well as access to a fantastic range of hands-on workshops run by leading sustainability experts, you’ll also get to meet regularly with like-minded people, share concerns, ideas and inspiration and be part of a community taking action towards a sustainable future! Sustainable Summer@CERES EcoHouse Workshops are targeted, flexible, and hands-on, to help make household sustainability accessible to you, whatever your circumstances, in an ongoing supportive community
