SUMMARY:Armidale Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Armidale Farmers Market is on 2nd Sunday each month 8:30am–12:30pm at Curtis Park \nOne of the great advantages of Curtis Park is that many people will be able to cycle and walk to the market. We’re always working on new ideas and activities in the pipeline and are aiming to continue to provide a vibrant and quality market. Keep an eye out on our Facebook page and Instagram. \nIf you are a paid up member of Sustainable Living Armidale you are welcome to sell produce at the Armidale Local Food stall with a slice of profits going to paying for the stall and surplus goes to SLA which in turn propels new projects. \nBYO bags + reuseables\, we’re aiming for a plastic free zone!

SUMMARY:Pilliga Tag–Along Tours
DESCRIPTION:The Pilliga Tag-along tour is a not-for-profit tour. It is an activist tour aiming to educate and highlight the dire impacts of coal seam gas. It is tour that contrasts the beauty of the Pilliga with the visible impacts of mining. \nCar sharing is encouraged\, as fuel is the largest cost. Self-catering is an option; costs are kept to a minimum. \n\nDay 1 We will visit either the Barradine Forest Discovery Centre\, the Sculptures In The Scrub or Fire tower and Salt Caves and the Sandstone Caves. From the top of the fire tower enjoy extensive views of The Pilliga\, with views of the Warrumbungles and Mount Kaputar. If time permits we will visit Dandry Gorge; take a 3 km walk to see the beauty of this rugged country and the amazing sculptures\, then a 1.7km walk to view the beautiful colours and Aboriginal art in the Sandstone Caves.\nDay 2 we tour the coal seam gas fields: visit ‘produced water’ spills; and see poorly rehabilitated areas on old exploration sites\, gas pipelines\, pilot production wells\, and previously unlined produced water ponds. Santos’s infrastructure and hear about the risks to the Great Artesian Basin.\n\nThe Santos leasehold in the Gunnedah Basin includes 53 current wells in the Pilliga and 850 proposed wells in the Pilliga and adjoining farmlands. \nPat Schultz\, National Parks association\, Armidale Branch \nBookings essential  Email pat.schultz@bigpond.com  Phone or message Pat {mobile prefix oh for}28725852
