# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Deep Winter 2026
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 11 Sep, 2026 at 01:30 pm – Sun, 13 Sep, 2026 at 04:00 pm (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: A DAY OF GATHERING, SHARING, AND STRENGTHENING OUR LOCAL FOOD MOVEMENT

Join farmers, growers, seed savers, cooks, land carers, and food activists from across the Northern Rivers for the heart of the Deep Winter Agrarian Gathering — a full day dedicated to connection, shared knowledge, and collective action for food sovereignty and agroecology in our region.

This isn't a conference of speakers and slides. It's a slow, seasonal, thoughtful space where small and medium-scale farmers and allies come together as equals — to talk honestly about the challenges we face, celebrate what's working, and build the relationships and ideas that strengthen our local food system.

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognise the continuing connection to lands, waters, skies and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, and to Elders both past and present.

Friday 11th September

    Afternoon tour of Marlivale Farm, Goolmanger, NSW

    Welcome dinner at the pub

Saturday 12th September - Unconference at Murwillumbah Showgrounds

    Welcome to Country and opening ceremony

    Breakout groups — two rounds of facilitated small-group discussion based on your contributions, focusing on barriers and opportunities/actions around food and farming. Breakout groups report back to the whole group.

    Potluck lunch — bring a dish to share as we eat together and keep the conversation going

    Closing circle

Themes we'll be exploring together:
Food sovereignty, agroecology and regenerative agriculture, seed saving, Indigenous land stewardship, local food economies, cooperative models and food hubs, climate resilience, and community care.

We'll be asking each other big questions throughout the day — what gives you hope right now? What connects you to your food? What would a thriving local food system here look like in 5, 10, or 20 years? — not to find quick answers, but to think and plan together.
