SUMMARY:EZ Compost Just Like 1\, 2\, 3! (12 January 2025)
DESCRIPTION:TCHS President Catherine Loke will be giving a talk on \nBiodiversity in a Bucket\nThe word “biodiversity” typically brings to mind some exotic habitat featured in a documentary narrated by David Attenborough. \nBeyond the current attention given to climate change\, Catherine will present a holistic view of sustainability and the importance of biodiversity to human health and survival.  She will explain how fossil fuels enabled the growth of cities and how urban environments became sanitized and sterilized by necessity\, leading to biodiversity loss as more and more land became urbanized or cleared for farmland to supply food to cities. \nCatherine will share her insights on how city dwellers can move towards living within planetary boundaries through an understanding of biological systems.  She will empower you to make a difference by applying permaculture principles in an urban environment\, and demonstrate some practical tips on what you can do to embrace the web of life and complete natural cycles through the simple act of composting. \nRegister here

He completed his PDC in 2014 and is a member of Urban Hijau’s Exco. \nSince co-founding Urban Hijau in 2015\, he has participated in their children’s programme\, planting\, weeding\, collecting green waste for composting and just about anything where he can get his hands dirty.  He is an avid propagator of natural farming practices and was a catalyst in the setting up of Tirtha Quddus\, a permaculture farm in Janda Baik. In his current mission to call people to action\, he is working with Urban Hijau in setting up a 3-step training programme for families and communities to start growing their own food. \n																										 \nWan Mohd Ridhwan (KL)\n\nWan Mohd Ridhwan trained as a chemical engineer\, and spent years in oil and gas production and operations with experiences in offshore engineering projects\, financial budgeting\, joint venture and people management before embracing permaculture in 2014 after completing a PDC with PRI Co-Director\, Rhamis Kent.  His experience lies within the humid tropics and subtropic climate zones. \nIn 2016\, whilst an intern in Zaytuna Farm under the tutelage of Geoff and Nadia Lawton\, Ridhwan acquired an understanding of farm systems\, i.e. cattle\, poultry\, nursery\, cropping and food forest setup\, operations and maintenance\, irrigation\, farm piping network\, mechanical works and earthworks\, and also gained experience co-teaching PDC. There he obtained his International Project Management Certificate and gained valuable experience managing Zaytuna Farm and working together with Geoff Lawton on consultancies\, designs and implementation.  He also had the honour of learning from many other leaders in their field\, such as the late Paul Taylor\, the late Graham Bell and David Spicer. \nOn his return to Malaysia\, Ridhwan co-founded Chalin Food Forest\, an 8-acre homestead where he built a container house and planted a food forest\, and completed a PDC co-teaching with Geoff Lawton in Malaysia. \n																										 \nAbdul Azim (KL)\n\nAbdul Azim’s first step into permaculture was through attending a weekend Permaculture Design Certificate course in 2012 with Eats\, Shoots & Roots taught by Sabina Arokiam and Juergen Soecknick.   He then attended the Permaculture Teacher’s Training with Rosemary Morrow (SEA Permaculture Convergence\, Hong Kong 2012).  Azim subsequently went on to work on a few permaculture projects including Pulau Bidan Permakultur where in 2017 he received his second permaculture certification from Stephanie Garvin. \nAzim has volunteered in several projects related to sustainable farming and nature conservation including working at Sri Lovely Organic Farm and with SRI-Mas on a 2-year programme on System of Rice Intensification with Agroforestry.  \nIn 2020 to 2021 he worked as the Site Coordinator at Rimba Jiva. \nAzim and his wife Dr Frederica Agnese founded Kebun Kemensah in 2021 with the idea of growing organic produce for the local neighbourhood.  Focusing on regenerative agriculture methods\, they have successfully combined principles of Syntropic Agroforestry with Korean Natural Farming. \n																										 \nChong Li Yen (KL)\n\nChong Li Yen is one of Urban Hijau’s first farm apprentices\, now farm manager overseeing planting and composting systems. While studying and working in USA\, she discovered organic farming in 2017 while staying with a farm family in Pennsylvania. It opened her eyes to the wonders of farm-fresh healthy produce. \nAfter a brief stint in the corporate world\, she joined Urban Hijau in 2021\, and her curiosity toward permaculture led her to complete her PDC with Tom Kendall of PermEco Inc. in August 2021. Since then\, Li Yen has had the privilege to design and execute various urban gardening projects\, as well as organise workshops and events for all ages. \nLi Yen is also a certified trainer (Train The Trainer under the Human Resource Development Corporation\, Malaysia). \n																										 \nMohd Nazzer Hamzah (SG)\n\nMohd Nazzer Hamzah obtained his PDC with PRI in 2014 under Rhamis Kent.  He collaborated with his fellow PDC coursemates to set up Urban Hijau in 2015. \nIn 2017\, Nazzer established the social enterprise Cangkul Zen Pte. Ltd. in Singapore with the intention of reaching out to communities through consultancy projects and educational workshops.  Post COVID-19\, Good Branchez Pte. Ltd. was set up to focus more on creating sustainable permaculture gardens in schools and communities in Singapore.  In collaboration with Mindful Space and The Circle for Human Sustainability (TCHS)\, Good Branchez set up two M.a.D. [Make-a-Difference] Gardens at Winstedt Road and the Civil Service Club @ Changi which are used to host community/family events as well as workshops for companies and institutions seeking opportunities for their staff/members to be exposed to urban farming and permaculture concepts.  In October 2023\, TCHS and Good Branchez enabled the residents of Nee Soon South to set up Khatib Wellspring Farmden\, the first truly integrated community food garden in a HDB housing estate.  The community has embraced the 12 permaculture principles and their garden now serves as a showcase for other estates to emulate. \nGood Branchez is also working with the local community and organisations in Malaysia\, Indonesia\, Bangladesh and Cambodia in setting up eco-sustainable food-producing farms and uplifting their lives to tackle the food security and global energy and climate situation based on the concept of Permaculture. \nNazzer is also a member of the MOE Parenting Support Group mentoring committee\, a certified Master Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner and a certified adult trainer (ACTA certification under Singapore’s SkillsFuture movement). \n																										 \nNova C.
