COSTA GEORGIADIS VISITS EUMUNDI STATE SCHOOL Jon
Gemmell
The school welcomed the visit from Costa Georgiadis whose SBS
program focuses on how to tread lightly – embracing nature’s
cycles and seasons, investigating and championing our local
produce from its source, and illustrating that in gardens, plants
aren’t the only things that grow.....people do too.
His visit was hosted by Leonie Shanahan from Edible School
Gardens who is currently working with all children from the
school in the school food gardens. Costa was very impressed
with the expanse of the gardens and with the plans that are in
the pipeline for the school gardens.
