#gawler — Public Fediverse posts

I think that the #Gawler history wiki is being optimistic about their chances of hosting more pachydermic excitements with this parameter value for their event template:

The #FoodForest - Australia

Short description of your place and practices:

"The Food Forest is a 15 hectare property in #Gawler where we grow over 160 varieties of fruit, nuts, grains, vegetables and timber. If you haven't already tasted any of our goodies, come along and see us every second week at the #Adelaide Showground Farmers Market.

"We offer a consultancy service, run courses on permaculture, building with #strawbales, fruit & nut production, #sustainable house design and more. Coming along for a tour or one of our twice-yearly open days is a great way to get a taste of what we're all about."

The #Gawler History wiki maintainers have a system of regularly depositing a hard drive of dumps and backups with the shire council. It's terrific to have backups residing with a different (trusted) organisation. The only part I wonder about is how disaster recovery can be best handled — the hard drive needs to contain instructions for getting #MediaWiki running again (or at least contact details of who to ask).

While out on a bike ride today I had the cross a stupidly narrow bridge over the North Para River in Gawler. Looks kinda idyllic except for the algal blooms in other parts of the river. Not sure if that is caused by agriculture in the Barossa Valley or the recent release of water from the South Para reservoir.
