ABOUT YOUR HOSTS

The Revillaging Project is an independent initiative. We are quite simply a family moving forward building community as quickly and passionately (and with as much hope and positive intention) as we feel this urgent time requires. Our plan is to continue to call in values aligned co-creators and community to enable new sustainable pathways forward. To collaborate. To walk in authenticity. And to improvise, as necessary. We’re working to create a sustainable, abundant space that supports You, our family and all the co-creators who work together on this land, for this land.Thank you for your support. Thank you for walking on this journey with us. Let’s build a hopeful future, together.

Living Culture is a not-for-profit organisation based on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia, providing Cultural, Environmental, Educational and Holistic Healing programs to schools, organisations and the general public. From guided walks and talks with Yidaki led meditation and sound healing, to educational programs, cultural talks, workshops, Welcome to Country and smoking ceremonies, Living Culture provides unique insight and understanding into the Indigenous heritage of the Boon Wurrung / Bunurong traditional owners of this land. Join an unforgettable, unique experience as you explore the rich indigenous heritage of this beautiful land. And together we can keep culture alive!

Infinity Regenerative Farm: is a Bio Dynamic community regenerative farm at The Revillaging Project that exists as a co-operation of volunteers meeting regularly, co-creating and facilitating relationships, learning on land, caring for the environment and practicing biologically dynamic and regenerative farming.

Native Movement: In the heart of a community that yearns to uncover its creative and sensitive depths, reconnect in synchronicity, serendipity, and understand the power of our collective heartbeat. Native Movement is inspired from this deep longing for us to rediscover the power and truth of our sovereignty, and within this movement, walk each other metaphorically back home. Native Movement is a reconnection to roots, inspired by an integrative blend of somatic movement, breathwork, meditation, and transpersonal psychology, that converge to create a haven for the soul. Feel the embrace to nurture a deeper self-knowledge for becoming an instrument of uplifting transformation within community. Native Movement is a sanctuary where education meets embodiment, where the art of Being Human is explored, celebrated, and a ripple that extends far beyond the confines of any shared session, Workshop or Retreat. It is a catalyst for positive change, inspiring individuals to rediscover their true essence and encouraging the community to embrace a lifestyle that is attuned to the natural rhythm of life, within sacred tried ritual, together.

The Children’s Village is a natural space within The Revillaging Project to support child-focused workshops and programs in partnership with values-driven facilitators. Our mission is to provide an environment to nurture families in the task of raising conscious and connected children, with an emphasis on landcare, reverence to spirit, and in relationship to Country.

Little Folk Steiner: Rooted in the philosophies of Rudolf Steiner and mindful parenting, our mission is to support parents on their journey to raising conscious children.
