GREEN SONGS – What does ‘sustainable living’ really mean? Living in her son’s straw-bale geodesic dome, Phyllis learned all about the struggles and successes of a ‘sustainable’ lifestyle. You will be inspired by this ‘green’ theme show about her experiences helping with the winter water-reed harvest, gardening and preparing food from scratch in her stories, her songs and fascinating video.
