About Doug
Doug studied environmental biology and is now working for Trillion Trees restoring degraded bushland. He has several years experience in sourdough breadmaking. He is passionate about the interconnectedness between ecosystem health and our own health and sees good bread as a good way to visualise and help with that.
Our weekly farmer's market will be in full swing during your workshop, so it's worth arriving a little early to check out the stalls and maybe buy some fresh produce.
Perth City Farm is a community urban farm that supports connected, sustainable communities. Established on a former industrial site in East Perth, this polluted site has been lovingly rehabilitated by volunteers to become a Western Australian icon for environmental sustainability and community engagement. We provide space and opportunities to build community connections, and educate and enable people to live sustainably.
We are just down the steps from Claisebrook train station, and free parking is available on Saturdays at the TAFE carpark next door.
