I am based at Hackney City Farm, where it is my responsibility to make the farm greener, cleaner and more efficient and improving sustainability in all areas.

As well as running our own workshops on living more sustainably/low carbon/green/ richer lives, we are the venue for a series of environmental skills courses delivered by the Low Impact Living Initiative - www.lowimpact.org .

We also try to provide support to any community organisation in its attempts to improve the lives of its participants in a sustainable way.

We hold the workshops every second sunday as well as regular meetings for community organisations that would like to work with us.

contact for me in farm capacity is gustavo at hackneycityfarm.co.uk

I tweet as @goldengus and as @hackneycityfarm

Hey Gustavo! ave you been much involved with these guys? I've not met any of them but they sound good. Do you know if they do much housing and energy efficiency stuff? See you soon! We're going to fix a date in late May/early June to bring people together on housing - share ideas, and then retrofit a home with some people who know what they're doing. Hope you're well!
