Sydney West Branch

Sydney West Branch
The Renew Sydney West Branch meets at the Hawkesbury EarthCare Centre, Western Sydney University, Richmond, NSW.
The Centre features extensive permaculture and native gardens, water tanks and a solar passive community building constructed from strawbale, rammed earth and mud bricks. The Hawkesbury Artist Group and the Henry Doubleday Research Association are also located at the centre.

WSU Solar Car site visit
We recently had a fascinating visit to the WSU Solar Car team workshop. This is the team that won the 2018 American Solar Challenge.
The Sydney West Branch meets on the first Saturday of each month from 10am at the Hawkesbury EarthCare Centre. All welcome. The Centre is located on the corner of Science Rd and Campus Dr. On weekends please enter the campus via Londonderry Rd.
