PERMACULTURE

Permaculture Research Institute 

Boycott Woolworths !

Woolworths has built a supermarket on the bank of the Obi Obi Creek in the heart of our beautiful town of Maleny and right on top of a significant colony of platypus that have borrows under the site.  The local community has been fighting the development for 3 years in an effort to preserve its local character, economy and Platypuses. 

Does every village & town in the whole world have to end up as a clone town with the same corporate presences dominating the local economy and streetscape? 
We say NO!

We don't shop there, would you?
