South East Water visited today for a Cultural Immersion Tour with Uncle Peter. See the SEW team with Kristy at our ngargee ground and then some of the team after tree-planting. Willum Warrain really values our partnership with SEW - they are great supporters of our community. The section they planted out today was first started 18 months ago by another SEW team. We appreciate the work they have done healing Country. Thanks to Glenn Pellegrin, (Senior Manager, First Peoples), your mob are welcome anytime.

We had a Community of Practice from Dept of Agriculture/ Djakitjuk Djanga visit today to learn more about our Bush Nursery.
See our new website, https://bushnursery.com.au/
Mobs from across Victoria dropped in for a yarn including Millewa Mallee mob, Nalderun from Bendigo and Gunnai/ Kurnai. See Felicia in action talking about production and operations. It was good to meet other mobs engaged in horticulture, farming and cooking using plants from Country. 5 years ago, Willum Warrain was a recipient of a grant enabling us to start up our Nursery. We were part of the Djakitjuk Djanga program, administered by the Dept of Agriculture and the Federation of Victorian Traditional Owner Corporations. From little things.....

Thanks Nat for bringing your DEECA fellas to visit Willum Warrain today. We were chuffed to have all you mob here from across the state. Thanks to Uncle Rob Ogden from Tarwin Cultural Services for the deadly Welcome to Country. We had a yarn, a look around Willum Warrain, a BBQ lunch and some spear-throwing.
N.B. It was great to see Josh here who used to work in our Bush Nursery when he was a student.
N.B.B. Best wishes to all you fellas for the upcoming fire season. Hope it's a benign one.

Mob from South East Tasmanian Aboriginal Corporation visited yesterday to learn about our story of establishing a Bush Nursery and how it fits into Willum Warrain's broader gathering place vision. They have exciting plans for possible ventures on lunnawanna-allonnah (Bruny Island) and Cygnet. We love sharing ideas and possibilities with other mobs. This connection came about via Outback Academy - we are both partners in this deadly Australia-wide network of First Nations' landholders and communities.

We had Deadlier Teens on tonight and had a session on emu egg carving. It was good reviving this cultural practice with young mob. There was plenty of dremel dust flying around the room!
Our next session in on Fri 4th Sept, 4.30-6.00pm. We always share a meal and parents and carers are welcome. It is open to youth between 15 and 21. Please ring Aunty Ange on 0475 078 041 to find out more.

A deadly connection. Today some of our Bush Nursery team travelled up to PARC in North Fitzroy to plant out their garden beds with our Peninsula plants. PARC is a safe, friendly and supportive residential facility for people experiencing mental health challenges in their lives. We were so happy to share cultural knowledge about local plants with their consumers (including mob) and staff at this facility. We know how healing our plants can be.
