This week, we have been so inspired by the nature around us in the mystical Australian rainforest. Julia has been painting in nature, honouring this slow life and the subtle shifts in the seasons. We've been planting trees - you can help us plant more / motherthemountain 🧡 Join us for some bouncy sheep, rising mist and endless rainbows.

We are sisters, Julia and Anastasia — caring for a regenerative farm on Bundjalung Country on the East Coast of Australia. We have a dream to build a self sustainable future and regenerate the land for generations to come. Join us as we learn to build, farm, garden, and care for the animals and land.
We live and farm on the land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal people of the Bundjalung Nation and these practices of regenerative living, agriculture and permaculture owe their roots and theories to Indigenous knowledge — they have been practiced by Indigenous People around the world for so many years. 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.
