Upcoming Events

Tribal Grounds Landcare Busy Bee

Friday, 9th May – Sunday, 11th May

Join us at the Tribal Grounds for a fun weekend, connecting with the land and each other. Our plan is to continue to develop our Tribal Grounds, and at the same time enjoy each others company, shared meals and fun activities.

The Plan
This busy bee we are targeting blackberry patches and thistles that need containing, as well as general weeding. You’ll need gloves and good cover for this job!

Another project this weekend is to fill 50 small hessian bags with potting mix/ planting medium and sew them up. They will be used to plant sedges to strengthen the creek bed and prevent further erosion. Please bring bigger needles, threads, crochet hooks and unneeded or old potting mix.

Camping Details
All are welcome – kids included! There is a fee of $5 a day to help towards the Tribal Grounds costs. Current membership is essential for insurance coverage and temporary membership is available for anyone not a current member.

Food
Please bring your food for the weekend, especially for special dietary needs. For those who are keen, we often pool our resources and create shared meals.

Contacts
For camp and general details, please contact Ursula on 0470 564 977.

Our Wishlist
Please bring your garden tools – such as rakes, secateurs, whipper snippers barrows, bags, buckets, gloves, spades, and so on. Do you have any extra equipment at home that could be donated to the Tribal Grounds for ongoing projects? They would be greatly appreciated.

What is the great walk?

Great Walks are about camping together in nature, walking the land and living in community. We organise food, walks, activities and provide equipment including a bus, kitchen facilities and a marquee for shelter. Everyone shares the responsibilities and we love having people of all ages come together. Walks are organised for interest and variety and cater to all levels of ability, with pick up points often available. The camps are family friendly, vegetarian, drug and alcohol free and encourage environmental / social care and awareness.
