Kyrstie’s book, Grow Just One Thing, is a perfect way to describe subtle disruption. If we are able to make one small change, the benefits of that change can be disproportionate to the change, and enable us to bring many other positive things into our lives. Kyrstie’s way of doing this is to encourage all of us to start growing one thing in our garden or house.
Subtle Disruptors
Jess had one of those moments when a question asked of her challenged fundamental aspects of the way she was living.
This Melbourne cafe is my new favourite, and it is changing the way people think about eating. If I was to make a prediction it would be that in a couple of years time there will be 10s of cafes around Melbourne modelling themselves on this one.
Growing our own food makes us more likely to eat healthily, be aware of our food system, and to get those happiness inducing soil microbes onto our fingers. In a city that becomes more densely populated by the day, where do we find the land to grow this food?
Kinfolk is a great Melbourne cafe. Of course this means that they make excellent coffee, serve quality food, and that it has a great look and feel. But hang around for a little while and you will start to notice there is a bit more going on than initially meets the eye.
