Editor’s rave Welcome to the first edition of ‘the hillscene’. A zine about the amazing people and interesting things going on in the hills.

contributors. I can’t pay you but I can send you a copy of the zine. If you’re interested email me for submission guidelines.

I have been living in Belgrave for about six years and am always amazed at the things I find, out and about around the hills.

I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed making it, and that it leads to many more explorations of the weird and wonderful world that makes the hills the special place that it is.

Everytime I talk to someone I discover some artist, crafter or musician lurking within. Or perhaps they’re passionate about the environment, food or fashion and can lead me to their favourite shop or some magical place I’d never visited before. And there’s a great sense of community unlike anywhere else I’ve ever lived before. Inspired by ‘Mixtape’, a zine I bought at Melbourne’s craft fair about the crafting community, I decided to make my own zine about our lovely local community. And so ‘the hillscene’ was born. I’d like to hear from you with ideas, the good, the bad, the ugly. Or let me know of the little nooks and crannies worth checking out in our area. I’m also interested in submissions and

When a friend asked me if I was interested in joining her organic co-op, I wasn’t sure exactly what they did. Here’s what I found out when I asked Shelley Walker a lot of questions. What is an organic co-op? To answer that Shelley sends me this mission statement which the group developed early on to explain their aims. “We aim to build a community of people who are able to access organic, fair trade goods and natural health and home products. We do this by purchasing from wholesalers and redistributing amongst ourselves. We are also looking towards creative ways of living as a more sustainable, resourceful and self aware community.” How did you start? Shelley was a member of a natural parenting playgroup in Cockatoo where one of the mum’s was a vegan. She was buying organic foods from wholesalers and had discovered that other parents were too. The co-op has evolved from parents all interested in doing the same thing. It started with ten families and was called ‘Abundance’. At first they made small orders and sorts every two weeks, but that wasn’t very efficient. Then they streamlined it over time. The co-op split into two as more people wanted to join. Shelley, who is now in the Belgrave group called ‘Hills Abundance Co-op,’ said they’ve found that ten to twelve families works well, all living in close proximity to make delivery easier. ‘Hills abundance’ only do wholefoods, they don’t do fruit and vegetables because it’s fresh and needs to be sorted and delivered straight away.

Hillscene Issue 1.indd 4

How does it work? The main roles of the co-op such as ordering, finances and a house for delivery and sorting are rotated every six months. That way everyone takes responsibility, is making a commitment to the group and can see how the whole process works. It’s about sharing the load otherwise it can lead to some people feeling overstretched. ‘Hills Abundance Co-op’ have developed spreadsheets through ‘Google docs’ where members can login with a password, where they are able to order products through their suppliers. Each member has a week to place their orders online and make sure that between everyone the minimum orders are filled. For example 10kg of rice may need to be ordered.

28/3/10 6:30:51 PM

eco matters Then the orders are placed with the suppliers and two weeks later are delivered to the sorting house. What is a sort? Every two months everyone comes together to do a sort. A sort is where the products are measured out or divided and given to the members who ordered them. The sort takes two to three hours. The group first have a meeting where they discuss issues and ideas to make the process easier and smoother. Products are then distributed into seperate boxes for each member.

If something doesn’t arrive or is the wrong amount they adjust the spreadsheet on the night so that everyone goes home knowing the exact amount they owe. It’s a nice atmosphere and a great way to keep in touch with the other members who can become friends and helps build a sense of community. So why buy organic? There are so many reasons, which is probably another article. But put simply, organic foods have more nutrients, as toxic chemicals are not used

in producing organic products, so they are healthier for us to eat. Organic farming helps to protect our environment too, by limiting the ecological damage that has taken place and finding more sustainable options for the future. Buying wholesale and redistributing our products, also means we are cutting down on landfill. Food goes straight into reusable bags and containers.

Mali In a leafy corner in the hills lives Mali Farnell. An artist and mum whose fibre and felt work I’ve admired in local shops, so I went to talk with her about her current projects and what inspires her. I started off with the big question “What do you do?” Her current project is a clothing label called ‘Mundarra’ meaning ‘cloth’ in aboriginal language. It’s a collaborative project made with friend Kate Horne. The

Hillscene Issue 1.indd 6

range consists of shirts, jumpers, halter tops, etc made from recycled fashion items which are then reconstructed. Working alone or collaboratively they find old clothes from op shops in good condition, cut them up, redesign and construct new, one-off handmade pieces. So it’s no surprise to find that her work room is floor to ceiling full of collected pieces she has to sort through.

we would have had to go into production and manufacturing and perhaps go overseas for that. That’s a big commitment.” The idea though did not sit well with their philosophy of the recycled and handmade nature of the garments, so they decided to stick to a boutique label that is unique and one-off.

“We had the pieces in a gallery called incub8r in Smith St, Collingwood. The range was in there for a season and it went really well, we couldn’t keep up with demand,” said Mali. “Each piece is individually handmade, which makes them unique and that’s what people love about them.”

“It was quite a journey going from making one-offs for friends, to having a label and range to again deciding to keep it small to fit in with our lifestyles” said Mali. Kate is travelling and home schooling as well as teaching a parenting course. Mali is currently studying counselling. She also makes jewellery, healing dolls and other fibre art and has started writing.

“The range was so popular” continued Mali, “Kate and I got to the point where

artist profile Community House many years ago and then learnt needle felting through the Steiner community. She started making toys for her children and progressed from there into more artistic realms. Her mother was a trained artist and made the props for playschool, so she was brought up in a house that was very pro handmade. She used to take Mali and her siblings to markets and covet the beat up and messy handmade objects she’d find there. The more crazy and whacky they were the more she loved them. “I love it, we’ve seen people in our jumpers and clothes and it’s just lovely to see people wearing our clothes” said Mali. “We get great feedback from Jane (at Local and Global in Belgrave) about people buying our things. The

joy they get from buying handmade, I love hearing the stories about how people get the clothing.” “I’ve always made stuff” she said. “I like a lot of found objects. Finding things on beaches or elsewhere and making them into something. If you’re a creative person that creativity always comes out whether it’s ephemeral or permanent. Stacking rocks, drawing in sand - it’s just play.” Mali sums it up perfectly “creativity brings a balance and peace to my life. It makes me feel whole. It’s work and play but if you can have work and play together that’s ideal.” I agree whole heartedly. Check out Mali’s diverse talents @ www.malidesign.com.au

Pixie mischief A friend of mine told me about this cute fairy shop in Upwey with a magical fairy forest out the back where they held children’s parties. It sounded intriguing, I had to go and check it out. I dragged my four year old son along, under protest, to the shop but once he discovered the magical fairy forest it was hard to get him to leave. It was indeed a beautiful fairy forest with a golden throne and toadstool seats, fairies hiding amongst the leaves and a waterfall you can place a crystal in. Subtle lighting and fairy lights give it a lovely enchanted feeling.

Hillscene Issue 1.indd 8

That’s the essence of ‘Pixie Mischief’, a shop in Upwey which is full of pixie and fairy gifts, dragons, children’s costumes as well as lotions and potions to pamper the adults. It was created by Sarah & Chris Lee who have been living in Upwey for three years now. Sarah has been a fairy for 17 years and worked at a similar shop in Ballarat. Chris has been an actor for over 20 years. The pair had been wanting to start a business and toying with different ideas, gift shops, online businesses, etc, but none seemed viable.

28/3/10 4:06:41 PM

Then they saw the shop at Upwey which was vacant and it seemed to call to them. “It was such a cute, quirky little shop,” said Sarah “we thought that needs to be a fairy shop.” Pixie Mischief opened in September 2008 and has been going really well. “The shop was always going to be what we have now,” said Sarah “the fairy gift shop and the parties.” What they have added since they started has been the pamper parties for adults. “These have evolved to psychic and palm reading parties which can be as serious or as fun as you like,” said Sarah. “The children’s fairy and wizard parties will stay the same,” said Sarah, “as I think they have the right ingredients. But we will be adding new events and different parties. Like the school

Hillscene Issue 1.indd 9

holiday shows which are written by our new fairy, who is a children’s book author.” “We’re about to go crazy with roving performers for corporate events and festivals,” said Sarah. They’ve hired someone from a corporate background to get commissions for this new venture. When I ask Sarah what she likes about the area she replied “It’s beautiful. I love living in the trees. I love that Upwey is accessible - it’s on the train line and on the highway. There’s a great community here, it’s got down to earth people. We’ve made friends for life in such a short time.” Pixie Mischief is at 56-58 Main St Upwey www.pixiemischief.com

Minstrels in the Gallery Therese Trigg talks about her cafe and shares one of her recipes with us. What a pleasure it is to see the faces of people enjoying a coffee, a lovely meal, a beautiful cake and to watch them look at a space that brings to life some of the simple pleasures of the early 20th century. For us a dream has come true to perform our music in such a lovely spacious room to an appreciative audience. In our life now is food and music given by others and ourselves in an environment that reminds us of times before electronic music when people and society were proud to have the skill to play an instrument. To create a place where the arts are discussed and enjoyed through music, painting, poetry and philosophy. Our concept is based on the wonderful French cafés of the 1900’s that resulted in the birth of the Impressionist period through a strong and invigorating mixture of art, music and discussion. ‘Minstrels in the Gallery’ in Selby is a restful cafe in the Dandenongs for people looking to escape and be surrounded by beautiful simple artistic concepts, ‘seriously good coffee’, food and music of all styles. Our musical styles include jazz, Spanish, folk and classical brought to you each Sunday afternoon.

survival day Survival Day is a celebration of the survival of indigenous culture held at Belgrave on Australia Day. Joanna Mogilewska explains what the day means. ironically all white! Aunty Dot Peters from Healesville was joyously involved, and still is, as a local elder to perform the traditional welcome ceremony each Survival Day. Nigel Wilkes and the Healesville Dance Troupe exemplify traditional culture and have engaged the audience over the three Survival Day celebrations in indigenous culture.

From little things, big things do grow and flourish, and Belgrave Survival Day has certainly done that from its humble beginnings three years ago. Like many great community events, campaigns and movements of our time, it started with a conversation between friends, and continues to grow and change as the journey unfolds. The first Belgrave Survival Day was an example of a grassroots concept brought into being through sheer good will and tenacity. The musical acts were

Hillscene Issue 1.indd 12

The second Survival Day allowed children and adults to have their awareness broadened with Sparkleland (Rainbow Eagle’s) unique perspective of the land on which we walk. Belgrave Survival Day has also been privileged with Indigenous acts like Sonny Lee Morgan and The Stray Blacks. This year Kutcha Edwards graced us with his voice and perspectives and joined the beautiful Judith Durham OAM to perform her own sincere rendition of the Australian National Anthem. As Kutcha pointed out while on stage, “the vibe at Belgrave Survival Day was so strong in unity and celebration.

The people were so happy to be participators of this day.” Didgeridoo meditations furthered a bonding of heart and spirit among the people thanks to the energies of Indigenous healer Joey. Live broadcast of the day through 3CR meant that our celebration is reaching beyond the hills. Ideas and intentions spread, and then are able to flourish and foster political will. It began when Nat Walker (now residing in Britain) and I had a chat with Jane Thomas in Jane’s shop (Local and Global) about Belgrave in general. We were a little perplexed and disappointed about the lack of local awareness, knowledge and concern for Indigenous issues and culture in our area. Belgrave, in fact the whole of the misty mountains of the Sherbrooke forest, is rather Anglo/Euro Australian. That’s not a judgement, but it does shed light on the cultural emphasis of the region in its colonial past and how it celebrates Australian history through an euro-centric lens.

28/3/10 6:33:02 PM

We considered alternatives. As Indigenous elder Uncle Henry points out, the Union Jack (intrinsic to Anglo-Australian identity) is actually a symbol of invasion to Indigenous Australia. It symbolises the effort to quash traditional culture forever; the longest continuum of culture known. It was therefore the sincere concern of Jane, Nat and myself that Belgrave residents were made aware of this and the long standing indigenous links to the area prior to white settlement; that in fact white Australia has a black history! We therefore decided that a local event that both celebrates and educates our local area would be a positive move towards reconciliation. It is widely recognised that in order to move forward as Australians we need

It is the heartfelt intention of the Belgrave Survival Day committee that over time more awareness of the Wurundjeri people and the Kulin Nation is imparted and understood in our area. We consider it a privilege to inhabit Bunjil the Eagle’s land and accept this with the charge to further the cause of reconciliation and equity for all inhabitants of this land, Australia. Then can we truly move towards a future that celebrates diversity and respects and includes all Australians as equals. To find out more visit www.belgravesurvivalday.org/

5 seconds, 4 secs, 3 secs, 2 secs, 1 sec. Congratulations. You are the highest bidder. Bargain, she thought. Clicking on the Pay Now icon, she confirmed payment on her well worn Credit Card, checked delivery details and noted the Powerseller status of ‘Patti-girl’, the seller of her newly purchased Sass & Bide top.

As she headed into the cool, clean glare of the white kitchen, her eyes smarted a little as they adjusted to the light. She clinked a crystal cut tumbler under the icemaker of the stainless steel Maytag, and wondered about ‘Patti-girl’, the Powerseller. Could it be someone she inadvertently knows? Perhaps they had rubbed shoulders at a party before. Maybe she’s been seated next to her at the local Barista on a busy Saturday morning. She’s probably a Fashion Buyer selling off her European samples. Even at $162.50 (inc. postage) the Sass & Bide top was a steal, and it would go a treat with that little black skirt with the sequin finish she purchased last week. Come to think of it, was that from ‘Patti-girl’ too? Yes, she must definitely work in the fashion industry, she thought to herself.

“Good morning Pat”, Marjorie said to her friend and work colleague. “Morning Marj. Anything good in today?” “Ah, I put a couple of things aside for you in the back room”. The room held a muted, musty smell. “Good on ya, luv. I’ll have a look at them after my morning cuppa”. She shuffled into the dark kitchen, filled the ceramic electric jug with water and booted up the old computer seated on the laminate kitchen table. Plastic bags spilled out of the back room onto the wooden verandah of the weatherboard cottage. The community charity shop was owned by the local Uniting Church and turned a small but tidy profit for the Church’s Missionary work overseas. “I’ll bring this lot in, in a minute Marj”, offered Pat. “But, I’ve just got to get this parcel off to the Post Office first”.

Flicking her painted toenails back and forth across the plush pile carpet that carried the glass dining table, she headed for the virtual check-out. Snapping shut the slimline silver lap-top, she returned it to the neat book-lined study down the hall. A victory drink was in order. No matter that it was only 3.21pm in the afternoon, after all, she deserved it. She had worked hard trawling the net all day in search of something to wear to the cocktail party Saturday week.
