24.01.2022 NAIDOC WEEK| We acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation who are the Traditional Owners of the land on which we live, work, and play. As an organisation, we commit to working alongside all Aboriginal people for reconciliation and recognition as the First Australians. And, we commit to learning, treading lightly, and caring for the land which the Wurundjeri have cared for over the past 60,000 years. #weloveaintree #alwayswas #naidocweek #naidocweek2020

Get the Christmas lights out, create an amazing display, snap a photo and send it to us by midnight Friday December 18 with your name and address. Entries are open to people in postcodes 3335 (Rockbank, Thornhill Park, & Bonnie Brook) and 3336 (Aintree).

To be an entry in this category, you need... to create a display involving at least 1 neighbour directly adjacent to your house (ie no roads or non-participating houses in between). The more houses in a row which are connected by Christmas Light, and the grander the display on each home, the more chance you have of winning in this category. Organise together with neighbours and have fun! #weloveaintree #christmas2020 #christmaslights #community #veryneighbourly #lovewhereyoulive See more

16.01.2022 FOOD RESILIENCE| Food systems will face more shocks and stresses in future, whether from pandemic, economic crisis, climate change (eg. storms, fire, flood or drought), fuel shock or other events. This requires a greater focus on building the resilience of food systems so that they can withstand and recover from shocks (and, indeed, adapt and leap forward), while continuing to deliver healthy and sustainable food. (VIC Health, Life & Health Reimagined Report 2: Good Food fo...r All) This is why our new social enterprise Eat Grow Garden is supporting food growing in as many homes and organisations as possible. By reducing our reliance food being transported hundreds of kilometres, and taking responsibility for growing and sharing food locally, we can create a local food system which is resilient. #growfood #eatgrowgarden #foodsystems #foodresilience #weloveaintree
