Exciting news y'all!
We are super stoked to announce that the tradition of our annual Spring Equinox gathering will continue this year with a special collaboration between High Valley Dawn Permaculture Farm and Grounded Permaculture Action Party. Grounded Gathering #10 will coincide with our 10 years of High Valley Dawn celebration this September school holidays for what promises to be our biggest and best gathering yet!  |
It official, Grounded and High Valley Dawn will join forces again for the 10th annual Grounded Gathering this September. This special event has really started to become a community of communities, connecting up the self-sufficient permaculture hubs and people all up the east coast of Australia. These two organisations have collaborated in the past on Off Grid Retreat and Harvestival and now we are coming together in full force along with many other organisations and individuals to bring Central Queensland something truly special, completing the Grounded mission of regenerating our sacred connection to country, community and culture. The Grounded Gathering is like a small, intentional festival with an emphasis on bringing more action to the party with a weekend gardening blitz where we will learn how to plant out a food forest in 2 days, guided by some of the best in the business while we also enjoy lots of workshops, music, food and of course many offerings for the kids (as this is a family-focused event).
More details to follow soon but you can rest assured the lineup will be sensational and will bring together some of the festival scene's best performers and facilitators. The best way you can support this event is to lock in your tickets early so we can budget accordingly and bring you an even more epic lineup.
Simply reply to this email to get the special High Valley Dawn Discount code. Please note as well that the ticket price includes 4 meals throughout the weekend as part of your ticket. |

Central Queensland's first PDC We're also super excited to finally be offering Central Queensland's first (as far as we are aware) dedicated Permaculture Design Course! The course will be delivered as a hybrid model with 13 weeks online content, culminating with a 4 day (fully catered) practical training leading up to the Grounded Gathering which will feature presenters from both Grounded and High Valley Dawn.
This course is Permaculture's flagship program which has launched many into new careers, new projects and a new way of observing and interacting with the world. |

Jarjum's (kids) Bush School Of course, no permaculture event would be complete without a specially curated, week-long program for the kids which happens to fall during the September school holidays. If you are local, you will have the option to either drop the kids off each day (if they are over 5) or come, camp out for the week and join the crew.
This option also makes it possible for many parents to obtain their PDC and know that the kids are also learning at the same time. |

Spaces are limited so now is the time to get involved and contribute whatever it is you feel called to share. |

My sister in Adelaide mentioned this site during a phone call last week. She said she'd tried it so I figured why not. When I opened ALDI Casino the first thing I noticed was they have a lot of table games variations - more than I've seen on other platforms. Spent about 45 minutes playing different versions of baccarat with small bets. Lost $20 overall, which is basically what I expected going in. The cards dealt fine, no glitches or suspicious patterns that I could see. Withdrew what was left without any drama. The whole thing was just... fine? Like ordering a sandwich that's neither good nor bad, just exists. Probably will come back when I'm bored again, but not rushing…
When deciding on an Australian gaming club, I found myself scanning through multiple threads comparing layouts, table ergonomics, and the subtle balance between game variety and interface simplicity. Some clubs overcomplicate dashboards, but what resonated for me was a quieter approach. betonred casino came up as a reliable option where navigation isn’t overwhelming, and feedback from regular players emphasized steady, intuitive engagement without flashy gimmicks.
Greetings, I found this platform through an Australia forum where users were discussing which casino pages work better on mobile devices. Since I often browse from my phone, I became interested enough to compare a few myself. Somewhere in the middle of my notes I inserted quickwin.us.com because navigation felt more natural than expected. I switched between sections for quite a while and didn’t run into confusing redirects or slow loading problems during the session.
Modern web platforms often focus on providing a straightforward user experience. This usually includes clear menus, well-structured pages, and fast access to different sections. When a website avoids visual clutter, it becomes easier for users to orient themselves and Mafia Casino find what they are looking for. Such design principles are widely used across many industries to improve overall usability and accessibility.👍
