Episode 4: Moruya

Flying across the Indian Ocean to Australia, we arrive in the small town of Moruya on the southern coast of New South Wales. We’ll discover how a not-for-profit community group called Sustainability Agriculture Gardening Eurobodalla (SAGE) formed, and about their dream to develop a strong community-based food system. We will also follow them through the fires and floods and hear how these climactic disasters forced them to re-evaluate their relationship to the land.
