Giveaway - Permaculture Diary 2009



With all that has happened this summer I felt that I wanted to give us all a little "pick me up" and thank all of you out there that take the time to read, regularly give me support and offer up suggestions.

Luckily sometimes the universe decides to provide. Just when I started thinking about doing so I got presented with an opportunity to get my hands on a copy of this wonderful diary. I know being 2 months into the year the whole new diary idea has probably already been solved by most of us but the inspirational pictures and simple eco tips make this one a little bit special in my opinion.

Being reasonably light I am more than happy to post it local, interstate or overseas so everyone is welcome. Depending on postage costs a few little home made surprises just might get included as well.

Draw will close at 3 pm on Friday Afternoon Australian Eastern Summer Time... so let the comments begin.

what a beautiful idea. i'm all full up for diaries at the moment, but i'm looking for a chart planner. maybe i'll just download one or make one in excel like a good computer geek. hope the diary goes to someone who loves it.

Hey Maia,

I certainly hope it ends up with someone that appreciates it.

I thought Word had a wall planner template or maybe it was publisher definitely one of the Office products did so it might be worth checking it out.

Kind Regards
Belinda

I am a lurker here, giggled myself silly on the last post about the grape jam. Don;t worry I can so relate as I did something very similar. I would love to go into the draw.

Welcome Melinda,

Thanks for sharing your reaction to the last post.

Your odds are looking pretty good at this point I have to say.

Kind Regards
Belinda

Hi Belinda,
Praying for you right now with the fires... my parents live in Emerald and are also hoping it won't head their way. Stay safe.

Thinking of you Belinda and hope you are not in the path of the fire. So many of my friends up that way have evacuated this evening.
Cool diary and I would love to go in the draw as I haven't got one for this year yet and it would be perfect for my new garden and new life :)
take care

Hi. I'm new to the "self-sustaining" lifestyle. I would print my own diary/planner off but unfortunately trying to save the ink I've got left for the placecards for my wedding invites - I designed and made all my decorations and from the leftover cardboard and paper I'm making placecards and table numbers. So I would love the diary. :) sorry long comment :)

Hi Belinda,

I'd love to go in the draw too - I have just started back at work and a diary would be good and a friend recently told me about this dairy and it seems great!

Very generous of you!

Rebecca

Hi Everyone,

I really appreciate your support. Got through last night with nothing more than smoke and a lot of worry. Thankfully the winds were no where near as fierce as predicted.

Thanks for all your entries.

Kind Regards
Belinda

Dianne said...

I dont comment much but have been reading you for a long time now. LOVE all the recipies (even if I cant spell it) LOL.

stay safe.
Thanks. Dianne.

Hi Belinda,
I was wondering if the diary has when to plant dates. I'm usually too early or too late, never on time. Could you please tell me where they are available from.

Please don't enter me in the draw. I only drop in from time to time and I'd like to see a regular reader win the diary. Not that I'd win anyway :-)

Welcome Dianne,

Thanks for sharing what you enjoy. Your entry is on the list.

Hi Nevyn,
You will find the diaries and calendar's for retail here
http://permacultureprinciples.com/

They do include the moon phases on the specific days and a seasonal sowing chart is included as a page in the diary. The sowing information is not shown during the diary weeks because it would get too confusing with the various temperature zones.

Kind Regards
Belinda

I gave up trying to find a good diary/calendar - too many kittens and puppies out there for my liking! Instead, used publisher to create a monthly template and for the picture section have been taking photos of family and events and writing words that will remind me how we celebrated that particular month. Now, where was this permaculture diary been hidding all this time???

All the best with the fires and hope you, your friends, family and possessions stay safe.

nevyn said...

Thank you Belinda.

Hi Belinda,

I hope you are safe.
