Off Grid Paradise: Permaculture Living in a Jungle Food Forest

Vast rainforest and mountains roll to the sea, filled with tropical fruit food-forests. This week, we visited an off-grid neighbour who is farming bananas organically, using permaculture techniques! Anastasia goes all the way to the ocean for a morning swim and to see the banana stall at the local farmers market. We work in the garden and plant trees and seedlings and start an exciting new project! / motherthemountain 🧡

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.
