ABC Gardening Australia presenter, bestselling author, and permaculturalist who established Good Life Permaculture in Tasmania — two decades of building climate resilience one garden at a time.
Hannah Moloney is one of ABC’s Gardening Australia presenters, a bestselling author and an accomplished permaculturalist who has spent more than two decades working with people in and around the garden to build climate resilience and advocate for effective climate action. In 2013 she established Good Life Permaculture in Tasmania, offering workshops, landscape design and community projects. She co-founded Source Community Wholefoods — Hobart’s only food cooperative — and the former Hobart City Farm, and created Home Harvest, the annual edible garden tour around nipaluna/Hobart. Her first book, The Good Life: How To Grow A Better World, was published in 2021.
Hannah has worked extensively with local councils teaching home composting to residents, and has built a reputation as someone who combines deep practical knowledge with an ability to hold difficult conversations about the climate emergency without tipping into despair. As ABC presenter Costa Georgiadis described her: she makes hearts smile. As author Matthew Evans put it: she is the antidote to climate doomism and denial.
For gardening, sustainability, food, community development and climate action conferences, Hannah Moloney is a warm, knowledgeable and genuinely captivating speaker. Her sessions are practical rather than theoretical, personal rather than political, and grounded in a deep love of the places and communities she works in. She does not avoid the hard questions — she answers them through the work she has built.
Hannah Moloney is a keynote speaker based in Tasmania who speaks on education, food & wine and sustainability & ESG. Book through Executive Speakers Australia.
