Education Shelter Completed |
|
Our education area shelter has been erected. The roof will also catch rainwater to fill our donated rainwater tanks for drinking water.
Thanks to Winter & Co for their fantastic design & construction plus Action Tanks for their kind donation of the water tanks.

As 2008 draws to a close and we wrap up the year at veggie village, I feel I need to thanks some of the outstanding contributions Village People have made thoughtout the year.
I’m pretty new to this leadership thing and to have so many people following my crazy Veggie Village idea can be somewhat overwhelming, yet inspiring at the same time.
We’ve done a lot this year and without your help, none of it would be possible.
So, without further ado I’d like to say a Big Cheesy THANK YOU the following people & groups.
