Impact upon Australia

The Slow Food Movement is part of a growing awareness of the relationship between healthy food and healthy bodies.

Permaculture (2016): Mollison has said: "Permaculture is a philosophy of working

 with, rather than against nature; of protracted and thoughtful observation rather than protracted and thoughtless labour; and of looking at plants and animals in all their functions, rather than treating any area as a single product system."

Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Foundation (SAKGF) was established in 2008. The Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting schools introducing Kitchen Gardens into primary schools. The Program is currently in 297 schools Australia wide. The Australian Government (2014) has committed funding to encourage another 400 schools to participate.
