WTF is GG23?

The 8th 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)

THE RETREAT & BUSH-SCHOOL:

27-31 AUG 2023 

A five-day, fully-catered immersion
to give you and the young ones time and space
to drop into your body, tune into the land, and
connect with the people around you.

The 52-acre Grounded Hub,
Cedar Waters (fka Famunity)
is a hive of community activity.

As a retreat participant,
you get the exclusive opportunity
to learn the theory
behind the projects on site and
gain hands-on experience
with action on the ground.

The retreat & bush-school is capped at 15 participants
to create the perfect group container
required for a truly transformative experience.

It is a relaxed approach to immersion learning,
activating potent evolutionary upgrades
while chilling in a parasympathetic state.

THE ACTION PARTY:

1-3 SEPTEMBER 2023

As the retreat and bush school wind down - the weekend action party cranks it up a notch or three with;

  • People-Powered Permaculture Action

  • Catered community meals from Fri dinner --> Sun lunch

  • Workshops, Talks and Demonstrations

  • Live & Electronic Musical Performances

  • Ceremony and Ritual

Framed by five elemental spaces facing the sacred central fire. 

  • EARTH: Kitchen, Food, Nourishment.

  • FIRE: Kids (Big & Small), Play, Movement.

  • AIR: Stage, Sound, Dance, Singing.

  • WATER: Teahouse, Herbs, Healing.

  • HEART: Tipi, Ceremony

And tucked out the back,
in a world of its own,
is the legendary TRADIE TOWN.

An interactive operations centre

where you get hands-on with tools 
and techniques that support you
living on and off the land.

(2022 was a factory line - pumping out a dozen top bar hives!)
