About Sophia Leon de la Barra
Permaculturalist and proud co-founding mother of Taiao Ora Farm Ecovillage near Ōamaru. After 17 years of ecovillage dreaming, we are currently two families that have bought into a small farm together. As a facilitator and kaitiaki at our local Waitaki Community Gardens over the past 9 years, I have been involved with teaching gardening and sustainable living skills at local schools, classes and workshops. Since completing my PDC, permaculture has become a pathway of life and learning.
