Local Green Hero Award

I'm pleased to tell you that I won the Green Lifestyle Magazine's Local Green Hero Award yesterday. Other winners in the People category were David Holmgren, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame, and Ben Dessen, who won the Junior Local Hero Award. I applaud David and Ben for the fine work they are doing. They're both leaders in this field. There was also a large group of organisations and businesses recognised for their work as well. You can read all about it and see a list of the winners here.  Thanks to Green Lifestyle Magazine for recognising all of us.

  31. There is a local song here that translates to, “Don’t wait for a man to die to say that he was good.” I am so very pleased that the efforts (with their international effects) that you (and Hanno) have been doing have been nationally recognized. Congrats!!! (The dark green print material looks very nice on you.)
