FULL COLOUR EDITION (Also available in B&W) HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT IT TAKES TO LIVE THE DREAM 'GREEN LIFE'? Author Derek Palmer shares the real-life story of how he and his wife turned 50 acres of scrubland into a sustainable, organic farming enterprise. A married couple, nearing retirement age find themselves in the middle of an Aussie bush block, living in an old caravan among rogue cattle, wild dogs and snakes. Through the years of the trials and tribulations that follow, these 50 acres of scrub evolve into "Loradel Park" - a viable, sustainable and organic farm and home. An inspiring story revealing family love, strong friendships, innovation and an undying determination to succeed. It expresses the sheer joy and heartbreak, the successes and failures that go hand in hand with life on the land and introduces some incredible characters, both two-legged and four. Including hands-on know-how and observations gleaned over the years, this book offers an example or illustration of a sustainable lifestyle and hopefully will encourage others who are contemplating living the 'Green Life'.
