I love it there.\u00a0Here&#8217;s another reason why &#8211;\u00a0I came away with a heavily discounted meal. Heavy as in free !!\u00a0Gotta love Byron for\u00a0the wonderful sharing nature of the place and people.<\/p>\n<p>As i\u00a0drifted back across the road, I\u00a0became pleasantly mesmerised by a\u00a0young man\u00a0with golden ringlets, standing on the street in front of my car\u00a0strumming his acoustic guitar and singing his dusky little soul out.\u00a0I stopped and listened to the\u00a0rest of his set while I sat on the bonnet of my car, beneath the stars and ate my free dinner.<\/p>\n<p>When he finished and after i had clapped at the end of each of his songs, I bought his CD in a show of support and admiration and asked him if he wanted to come sing live\u00a0on this mornings show\u00a0&#8230; unfortunately he couldn&#8217;t. I assured him that i would be playing his\u00a0music on the show.\u00a0The beautiful\u00a0thing about\u00a0this story is that i discovered only this morning,\u00a0that he&#8217;s playing at WILD FOOD FEAST\u00a0&#8230; which is what\u00a0my two guests today are organising and here to talk about. He is KIT BRAY. Love him.<\/p>\n<p>Tasty\u00a0radio is what we aim to bring you every week here on belly and this week was no exception as we welcomed into the\u00a0studio\u00a0two\u00a0estatically ethereal, honorary belly sisters who have a lotta WILD\u00a0somethin&#8217;s going\u00a0on.<\/p>\n<p>Lealah\u00a0Shostak represented the Byron Nature Conciousness today. Perhaps something to do with growing up amongst the billion shades of dense, rolling green-ness up there\u00a0in the back hills of Main Arm on Grandaddy&#8217;s\u00a0land, eating\u00a0food\u00a0straight\u00a0out of\u00a0the lush, juicey garden\u00a0&#8230;\u00a0and Grandad still lives there by the way. It&#8217;s clearly obvious that this young lady is an angelic\u00a0gift to the world,\u00a0radiating\u00a0such purity and honesty in her\u00a0gentle quest to live respectfully and peacefully with our Earth and rubbing a bit of sparkle off on each of us lucky people who come in contact with her.\u00a0Go Lealah !!<\/p>\n<p>Sofi Asha on the otherfoot, comes from an urban sanctuary in\u00a0shining Sydney. Refined, graceful and armed with a wicked recipe on how to turn a milk crate\u00a0into\u00a0a funky little garden, the other half of the initial collaboration for WILD FOOD FEAST\u00a0has also just finished studying Permaculture and\u00a0thought &#8230;\u00a0&#8216;Hey, why not\u00a0start a community garden\u00a0&#8211; the FIRST i might add &#8211; in Byron&#8217;. I don&#8217;t think that a think lasts long in this young lady&#8217;s head before it&#8217;s an action. Go Sofi !!<\/p>\n<p>You know Mitre 10\u00a0on the bend of Johnson Street up there heading South out of town\u00a0? There&#8217;s a carpark just before it that\u00a0leads to and runs along beside the sadly neglected and disused railway line. From what i can gather, the new community garden\u00a0must be there. Just head there, i have a feeling you won&#8217;t\u00a0miss it &#8230; or want to.<\/p>\n<p>This is also the &#8216;venue&#8217; for their<strong> &#8220;WILD FOOD FEAST&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Commencing at\u00a0MIDDAY\u00a0it&#8217;ll\u00a0sail through\u00a0til 5PM on <strong>SUNDAY 15TH JULY.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Music to feed your soul will be heard from &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>KINDLING (three pieces of\u00a0Kooii)<\/p>\n<p>KIT BRAY (The Time He Waits is the EP of his i bought last night)<\/p>\n<p>LIFE LINE\u00a0(Winners of Bulesfest Youth competition)<\/p>\n<p>POTATO POTATO\u00a0(also headlined in youth competition at Bluesfest)<\/p>\n<p>There will be\u00a0WILD workshops with Peter Hardwick who&#8217;s\u00a0going to\u00a0be taking\u00a0strolls with anyone who wants to go with him,\u00a0around the urban streets of Byron hunting for WILD food.
