The Feeling of the Season: Calming Days of Fruit Picking and Traditional Craft

The season is changing and the fruit, the stream and the rainforest all celebrate. We harvest, find calm by the relaxing creek, create a zero waste top from handkerchiefs and camp on top of a waterfall.

A few years ago, we began a journey to live a life in perfect harmony with nature. A life of caring for animals, growing fruit, planting trees, gardening, cooking, creating, building and learning to live with the land. In this time, nature has taught us more than we could have ever imagined. Our environmental films document the landscape, the lessons we’ve learnt and our work as regenerative farmers here on Bundjalung Country. We live on the land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal People of the Bundjalung Nation. We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Country we live on and recognise their continuing connection to the land and waters. We thank them for protecting this rainforest and its ecosystems since time immemorial.
