What is Creating ErinEarth: Ecological justice thriving in Wagga?

Twenty-five years ago, ErinEarth was two asphalt tennis courts and a dumping ground for a nearby school. Then two local Presentation Sisters, Carmel Wallis and Kaye Bryan, had the audacity to dream big and take action. This is the story of how Carmel and Kaye galvanised the Wagga Wagga community and turned a local wasteland into a half-hectare native garden. A quarter of a century later, ErinEarth stands tall as a beacon of biodiversity, demonstrating sustainable living to the local community.
