Sustainable Settlements’ accountant and drone photography enthusiast, Andrew Jager, took these aerial images last week of the Ecovillage site. They show construction progress on our impressive new dams, the solarisation of grass underway in the office demonstration garden, maintenance work in the vineyard, as well a ground-level view of the soccer oval site.
