After taking a year off in 2024
Grounded Gathering is back for 2025
in better form than ever before.
If you've come to
the realisation that,
Getting on LAND
Growing FOOD and
Building COMMUNITY.
is of the upmost priority…
then GG2025 is all your
dreams come true.
Over an immersive week and
action-packed weekend you will…
+ connect with like-minded soul-tribe,
+ remember ancestral wisdom and skills,
+ dance barefoot to the funkiest choonz,
+ share in homegrown organic food, and
+ gift back to Mother Earth as she gifts to us.
GG2025 is the flagship event of
the grass-roots not-for-profit
community organisation
that many refer to as
a movement.
(it’s not a cult… promise!)
A joyously-thriving
family-friendly
village-sized
celebration.
(with a big focus on kids…
they are our future!)
A syntropic symphony
of social synchronicity.
(sounds stupendously special, doesn’t it?!)
Giving you what
your soul craves.
Regenerating our
sacred connection to
country, community and culture.
(that’s our mission statement FYI)
WANT TO PLAY?
There are a few ways you can do that.

the theory behind the projects on site
and participate in action on the ground.
A relaxed approach to immersive learning,
activating potent evolutionary upgrades
while chilling in a parasympathetic state.

to create the perfect group container
for a truly transformative experience.
On offer for the GG2025 Retreat:
+ Permaculture Ethics & Principles

BUSH SCHOOL: AUG 25-29
Drawing upon the philosophies of Rudolf Steiner,
Bush School provides a beautiful balance of activities
aimed at nurturing the young developing self –
through head, heart, hands and spirit.
Creating positive systemic transformation
in the realms of SELF, EARTH,
HOME and COMMUNITY.
Wildcrafting, story-telling,
upcycled art, tree planting,
nature play and immersion,
a group performance, and
moving meditation.
Perfect for retreat participants, volunteers or invited crew
who have young ones 6-12 and want to bring them along for the week.

ACTION PARTY: AUG 29-31
As the permaculture retreat and bush school wind down -
the weekend action party kicks in with;
+ People-Powered Permaculture Action
+ Catered meals from Fri dinner --> Sun lunch
+ Workshops, Talks and Presentations
+ Live & Electronic Musical Performances
+ Ceremony and Ritual
—------------------------------
MUSIC!
When we talk about the permanent aspects of culture.
Music is the only thing that predates culture itself.
Music is at the heart of
what we do and why we do it.
The Grounded Crew not only
get their hands dirty in the garden, they also
love to jam, freestyle, or throw down tasty DJ sets…
sometimes even all of the above… and all at once!
DJ's - TBC
LIVE - TBC
—---------------------------
TALKS AND WORKSHOPS
fill out the official program,
but they also pop up at random.
This is where members of the Grounded Network
share their passions, skills, insights and experiences.
From beatboxing feats
to brewing boozy mead.
From aerial grafting to
seed-saving and propagation.
From herbal witch’s concoctions
to darning stitches to fix your socks.
If it helps humans live a more harmonious existence,
consider it on the table and in the mixes.
Got the goods?
