WTF is GG26?
The 10th rendition of a grounded gathering
that jump started a grass-roots,
not-for-profit, community organisation
that some people call a movement.
(it is not a cult.... promise!)
a high vibe,
down to earth,
good old fashioned,
permaculture action party
(despite the fancy new age name - the practice is ancient!)
a joyously-thriving
family-friendly
village-sized
cultural celebration
(giving what your soul is craving)
a syntropic symphony
of social synchronicity
(sounds stupendously special doesn't it!!)
regenerating
our sacred connection
to country, community & culture
(that is our mission statement FYI)

PDC PRAC & BUSH-SCHOOL:
21-24 SEPTEMBER 2026
A four-day, fully-catered immersion that
gives you and the young ones time and space to
drop into your body, tune into the land, and
connect with the people around you.
Hosted at High Valley Dawn Permaculture Farm, Yeppoon
the site offers a serene and inspiring space to
connect with self, country. community & culture.
This year, instead of a Permaculture Retreat,
we are running one of the practicals of our
Hybrid PDC (Permaculture Design Course).
As PDC Practical Participant
you go through 3 months of online training
learning all the underlying principles of permaculture
to turbo-charge your journey into natural abundance.

In parallel to the PDC Practical,
our Jarjums Bush School draws upon
Steiner philosophies with a program that
provides a beautiful balance of activities to
nurture the development of the young self –
through head, heart, hands and spirit.
Perfect for PDC participants,
volunteers or invited crew who
have young ones 6-12 and want to
bring them to share in the experience.
The PDC Practical & Bush-School is
capped at max 18 participants
to create the perfect group container
required for a truly transformative experience.

HIGH VALLEY DAWN
PERMACULTURE FARM
High Valley Dawn was born from a deep passion for regenerative living,
wellness, and the desire to share fresh, organic,
locally grown food with our wider community.
Long before the farm existed,
an intention was set to create a self-sustaining haven
that would inspire future generations to live in harmony
with the natural world.
In 2016, the universe answered that call,
placing a magnificent 140-acre seaside allotment
into our care and allowing the vision to unfold.
