WTF is GG25?

The 9th 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)
