Final chance! Join us for our first Brisbane get-together.

We’re coming together with Climate Crew Brisbane and Food Connect Shed for a Sunday afternoon of drinks, music, conversation and connection.

🌱 We’re bringing our communities together, to share ideas and celebrate citizen-powered change🌱

Who are the organisers?

💜 People for nature is an independent non-profit organisation on a mission to empower all Australians to actively protect biodiversity and build climate resilience.

💚 Climate Crew is a community facilitating in-person events and engaging conversations for those interested in the climate space.

🍎👨‍🌾💃🏾🍻Food Connect Shed is a community-owned, change-making food hub and event space in Salisbury, Brisbane

This event is free and community-focused, but we would be very grateful if attendees could make a small conscious contribution to help the Food Connect Shed cover venue rental and maintenance costs.

Come along, sing along (if you feel like it), share your journey, and be part of building a stronger, more engaged climate community. 🌿✨

So much of what happens in community remains out of sight — the meetings, the logistics, the quiet labour of care.

At OHM, we're changing that.

Using the Wisdom framework, we've collectively mapped and reviewed over 500 contributions to OHM Gathering, producing two milestone documents:

- Value Map of all contributions, to help coordinate future gatherings 📊
- Contributor Honourboard, celebrating those who gave more than a fair share 🏅

This is our most comprehensive valuation experiment yet, and another step toward a fairer, more transparent way to coordinate, recognise and reward community contributions.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone on our OHM2025 Contributor Honourboard. You are what made it possible.

🌿 OHM Gathering 2025 was our boldest experiment yet—a co-created weekend of culture, creativity, and decentralised coordination.

From ceremonies and shared meals to art, presentations, and workshops, every moment was shaped by the community, for the community, and guided by the Wisdom system.

In this blog post, we reflect on the key moments, experiences, and magic that unfolded over the weekend.

Join us for a low-key decompression gathering as we return to our lush OHM Gathering site on Kombumerri Country, Natural Bridge.

This weekend is for reconnecting with community and country, reflecting on what emerged, and gently sensing into what’s next for OHM.

We’ll hold the same core principles as OHM Gathering — decommodified, inclusive, participatory — with a much lighter container, focused on rest and integration.

----------------------
ℹ️ DETAILS

🗓️ 3-6 January

📍 Natural Bridge, QLD (address shared in Luma)

​👯‍♂️ Trusted friends of OHM Gathering participants are welcome

⛺️ ​$25 per person per night (+5% platform fee)

These camping fees are set by our site hosts. As this weekend isn’t being organised through WISDOM, everyone is asked to pay the same flat rate.

We do want core contributors to be able to attend, however, so if this is you and cost would be a barrier, please reach out to explore options.

If you’re able to contribute a little extra, you can do so at checkout to help pay it forward.

----------------------
​🌱 WISDOM WORKSHOP

On Sunday morning, we’ll host a participatory experiment using the OHM app to collectively review and recognise contributions to OHM Gathering.

This is a deeper dive into the system we’re growing, building on the introductory talk at the Gathering — and yes, an opportunity to earn some OHMnoms 🍪

Beyond this, there will be no formal programming from the core team. If you’d like to offer or organise something informally, feel free to coordinate here on the event page or reach out directly.

✨ Introducing our cozy, community-powered Massage • Integration • Sleeping Space at Gathering! ✨

By day, this little haven becomes a chill-out zone — a place to receive community-gifted massages, share soft conversations with friends, or gently integrate your breathwork and other expansive journeys.

By night, it magically transforms into a communal sleeping space for anyone without a tent. Just bring your own bedding or mattress — or curl up on one of the yoga mats we’ll have ready.

If not having a tent was holding you back… we’ve got you covered. 🧡

OHM Gathering kicks off today, and gates close 12pm Saturday.

Come join us by the creek — we can’t wait to share this space with you.
