YARN AND YIELD
When Helen and her husband purchased a property in West Woombye, they intended to use it for community benefit. People kept asking what community benefit meant, and we did not have the answer. We were waiting for the right people to show up with the right energy and values to work together to create community benefit.
Yarn and Yield is a community-led regenerative project starting with regenerative farming using syntropic and permaculture principles. The land was previously used to grow food with some established fruit trees still providing beautiful fruit. New gardens will be created, more fruit trees will be planted, and food will be grown and harvested with the community for the community.
Building on regenerative farming, the project will expand as the community creates and delivers more regenerative projects, events, and workshops.
In time, the land will be converted to a Community Land Trust, so the regenerative projects can continue to grow and deliver community benefit.
