Welcome to the CERES website

CERES is an award winning, not-for-profit, environment and education centre and urban farm located by the Merri Creek in East Brunswick, Melbourne.

Built on a decommissioned municipal tip that was once a wasteland, today CERES is a thriving, vibrant community. Entry to CERES is free and open to all.

You can find out more about all our key activities by clicking on the top buttons. Or you can search our right hand sidebar for information on CERES wide issues such as our governance, community groups on site and the site itself.

We hope you enjoy your online visit to CERES and encourage you to visit in person.

Permaculture Design Course

Permaculture is a process for designing sustainable communities and is derived from permanent agriculture and permanent culture. Permaculture is a combination of traditional wisdom, modern science and technology and a detailed understanding of natural processes.

Permaculture provides practical solutions to current unsustainable living standards, generating life styles which minimise our impact on the environment.

Permaculture is a design system based on ethics and principles which can be used to establish, design, manage and improve all efforts made by individuals, households and communities towards a sustainable future.

Our first 2012 course has already sold out, but we are now taking enrolments for an extra course, which will commence on Tuesday 7 February 2012

Celebrating and giving thanks to the good earth, our farmers and the cycle of the seasons

The Autumn Harvest Festival celebrates the abundance of the harvest. The tomatoes and zucchini are slowing down, the air is getting crisper but it is the perfect time for pumpkin.
