Event description
WELCOME to the Human Forest weekend at EPOCH GROVE!
A weekend of connection, curiosity and creativity through tree planting and human forests!
BACKGROUND
As you know, we've been steadily putting money from our Human Forest Experience events towards the EPOCH GROVE Regeneration Project. This project has focused on turning our degraded farmland into the thriving and rich eco-system it once was.
Central Victoria was home to one of the world’s greatest gold rushes. Thousands of people from all over the world came seeking glory and fortune, ripping apart bushland and flushing away topsoil in their search for gold. Once there was no more gold to be found, settlers found new livelihoods in grazing the countryside to exhaustion leaving erosion and areas on the brink of desertification.
These two events resulted in unprecedented ecological devastation that turned a once rich and fertile landscape, teeming with wildlife, into severely degraded and barren farmlands.
This land has been crying for help for decades. A call that’s been unanswered.
Until now.
This is where you come in- You are invited to Gather in the Grove, the Epoch Grove Regenerative Gathering!
A weekend where we'll come together to plant the seeds for new eco systems to thrive and leave this land better than we found it.
Let’s party with purpose.
