SUMMARY:Arian McVeigh ‘ANU Kitchen Garden - a third space for students to connect with each other and nature and enjoy good food’
DESCRIPTION:The ANU Kitchen Garden Program provides opportunities for students to connect with each other and nature while they tend an organic community garden and share the produce they grow. \nAbstract \nThe ANU Kitchen Garden Program creates opportunities for students to connect with each other and with nature through a focus on environmental sustainability and fresh\, healthy food. We aim to address isolation and loneliness\, provide wholesome and community building activities for students and inspire and educate about sustainability\, circular economy principles and environmental stewardship. \nThe Kitchen Garden Program is based around a beautiful\, organic community garden in the centre of campus which thrives due to the living care of a range of students who also live eating the produce they grow and looking after nature. \nBiography \nArian McVeigh has been the coordinator of the Kitchen Garden Program at the Australian National University since its foundation in late 2021. She is a passionate sustainability and nature educator and community organiser with more than 20 years’ experience in organic and regenerative gardening\, seed saving and permaculture. Arian loves her role engaging students in opportunities to connect with nature and with each other through a focus on sustainably growing and eating fresh food. Arian’s love of growing food and biodiversity and passion for community work led her to found a local seed savers network ten years ago\, growing\, saving and sharing food seeds with the community and inspiring more seed savers through education and outreach. \nBooking Link – https://www.trybooking.com/DRCGZ \nOne-hour talks are held at 12.30 pm every Thursday from February to November. We welcome donations by gold coins\, notes\, or electronically. The Friends use donations to support Gardens’ programs and development and thank all those who have donated. \nPlease note: unless otherwise indicated\, talks are in the ANBG Theatrette. \nIt is a good idea to reserve a seat at the talks that you wish to attend; several talks are booked out very quickly.  Bookings can be made about 30 days in advance until Wednesday night before the talk. \nThe Friends of the ANBG thank the speakers who volunteer their time and talents to further the knowledge of all attending events in the Gardens. Some summaries or PowerPoint presentations of Thursday talks are available to Friends at the ANBG Library. Please direct queries about the talks to the Thursday Talks Team: email talks@friendsanbg.org.au
