Green Patch 4 Day Course (Sold out!)

** This is sold out. Next Green Patch Nov 13. Details coming soon **

After over 20 years of sharing my knowledge and experiences and after developing a great connection with many people on the courses, I am ready to share deeper knowledge of edible & medicinal wild plants and the finer details of what it's taken to thrive in the Aussie bush.

While all courses have the option of staying in your vehicle, campervan etc, participants are encouraged to set up camp in the bush and sleep there for the duration of the course
