We are sisters, Julia and Anastasia Vanderbyl. A few years ago, we began a journey to live a life in perfect harmony with nature. A life of caring for animals, growing fruit, planting trees, gardening, cooking, creating, building and learning to live with the land.
In this time, nature has taught us more than we could have ever imagined.

Our environmental films document the landscape, the lessons we’ve learnt and our work as regenerative farmers here on Bundjalung Country.

We live on the land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal People of the Bundjalung Nation. 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.

  2. Looks like most all the tree could use pruning. If you can't handle it hire someone/s. You have the money. Sell some fruit

  4. How beautiful you are that you are a recipe rich in vitamins that we need to achieve happiness. I wish I had luck with you, especially with a very wonderful view of nature. You are a flower in the middle of a garden and your beauty is beyond beauty ♥️????

  7. I really enjoyed the music and the singing in this video!! It wasn't too bland or over the top!! It had just the right pitch to make me relax while watching your video!! Cheers!!

  9. Wow, I googled. Au has 3.6 Million ha rainforest. I didn't know it had one.
    Now I have only one question left : where is your accent from?

  10. growing any lovage, rosemary, french tarragon, russian kale, horse radish, katuk, malabar spinach??… so many options in a tropical climate, edible bamboo etc even soap nut trees for washing, increasing biodiversity and perennials is fun… you have any blue berries? black berries? not sure if hazelnuts produce in the tropics… experimental gardening..
