Now that Jordan has been formally identified, we would like to share our sincere condolences to his friends and family 💔😢 and to the QPS officers who attended the incident

We met Jordan and his family when they visited our retreat in 2022, Jordan also brought with him a homeless veteran who ended up staying for quite a while and becoming part of the VR faRmily

Please please please if you’re struggling reach out and get help, your friends and family love you and would do anything to help, but the reality is YOU are the only one that can help yourself, those who love you can only walk beside you and support you along the way, don’t bleed on those that didn’t cut you, be vulnerable, let them in, cry out loud, let them see YOU. So many times we think we’re screaming for help and no one’s listening but in reality we’re bottling it all up, refusing to drop our armour, refusing to be vulnerable and weak cause it’s not who we are, we are warriors 💪 see you in Valhalla JK

Most days I think there is more negativity than water in the world 🙄 but I do everything I can to not allow it in. No radio, no free to air TV, no ads, no news, the only way it really slips in is via social media which is pretty prevalent in everyday life nowadays. But I get to scroll on, unfollow and CHOOSE to not get involved.

YOU can also CHOOSE 💖

You all remember the local council blow up regarding shipping containers right?? Well surprise surprise they are proposing (synonym for nicely saying we are doing it) to make some changes to local laws, which includes changes to placement of shipping containers on residential properties where businesses are undertaken (us) and also a whole new law about removal of exemptions of having campers on rural properties and replacing with annual approval to operate as a camping ground (previously us).

I didn't back down to the intimidation tactics or threats of fines, I simply replied on paper with facts and not emotions (unlike my FB live 🤣) and asked to see the policy (which clearly never existed) but is now being written as a result......or is it just coincidence? 🤔 I'll let you decide

If these changes affect you make sure you have your say before the deadline 13 March 2026

We found some hidden land we didn’t know we had 😂 so we’re building a bridge 🤠💪

Any engineers that miss the good ol days of bridge building 🪏⛏️🪚🪖 and no you can’t blow it up after 🧨 come join the fun

Plan A consists of felling our own trees then somehow placing 3 x 8m logs across the creek, doing some levelling, installing the planks and finishing off with some earthworks to make for a smooth ride. How hard could it be right??

The Gympie Music Muster has again secured our support (because we are their favourite volunteers 😜😉🤫 and out work ethic is next level 🏋️🏆) to prepare for this years muster.

That means working bees leading up the event in August and the pre muster week bump in. Not only does this raise significant funds for our charity and keeps us operating, but it is for a great cause and bonus is our volunteers get to attend the main event for free 👏 if you want to be part of our amazing team then comment below or send a PM and I’ll add you to the group so you can keep up to date with our working bees and other important information.

Nothing like a short notice task 😂 We start next Thursday 5 Feb at 7.30am out at site cleaning up after a recent storm did some decent damage. So chainsaws at the ready and no stick will be left behind 🪵
