About

 

Get Sunflowered

ReActivate Latrobe Valley's #Get Sunflowered project is a lesson in happy-making while exploring ways to address vacancy problems in the Latrobe Valley's rapidly changing regional economy.

#Get Sunflowered has been in action for three years and, most intensely, during two growing seasons between 2014 - 2016.

#Get Sunflowered has been
turning the Latrobe Valley’s greys and browns into gold and green. Local response has been overwhelming.

Keen to Get Involved

#Get Sunflowered is about community organising, building cooperation to tackle vacancy-related problems that undermine neighbourhoods.

#Get Sunflowered is always looking for keen volunteers and community groups to help as site champions. In this role you'll help with planting, maintenance (weeding + culling), watering, harvest, and site clean-up.
