FAQ

Will I get to take home some biochar?
Yes, you will participate in making enhanced biochar in a highly efficient, compact biochar kiln, and there will be enough for everybody to take home some enriched biochar at the end of the day. 

Question: I require wheelchair access. Is this available at all venues?
Answer: Several venues and activities are not wheelchair accessible. Some workshops include outdoor activities on rough bush trails. Some activities include walking up fairly steep hills. Most workshop venues and toilets require going up one step. We have a folding removable ramp that could be put in place by an assistant. Camp sites require travelling over rough ground. Some B and B accommodation is wheel chair accessible, so this can be arranged if required. 
The ablution block at the campsite has ramp access. However, the road between the ablution block and the campsite is a rough, gravel road with ditches.
