THE TREE CANOPY PROJECT
Trees are not only beautiful, but they significantly cool the environment and protect us from summer heat. Horticulturist, Anne Wilson, will explain why we need to increase tree canopy in a warming climate. Sally Osterstock, an experienced fruit tree grower, will demonstrate how easy it is to propagate many types of fruit trees for your own garden.

LEARN MOREFLUX: WRITES OF YOUTH
The world is in a constant state of flux. No one feels this transformation more than young people. Writing is a powerful tool for discovering identity, sharing personal, lived experiences and changing the shape of the future of our own lives, our society and the planet we live on. Join us for monthly workshops to learn about character development, world building, writing from life, voice, POV, plot, genre, editing and constructive feedback techniques in a supportive and fun environment. Flux is a safe space for all young people aged 12-18 to hone their craft, explore themselves and connect with others.
LEARN MOREVILLAGE GREEN
Unley was one of the first districts in Adelaide to be opened for settlement in 1837. Over the course of years beautiful villas were constructed in the area that is now known as The Village Green. Through the 1970’s these villas were purchased by the City of Unley and generously made available for community use. At that time the rear gardens were opened up to become what we now regard as The Village Green. Since that time, the natural beauty of the area and the open space has been treasured by Unley residents and the wider Adelaide community alike.
