    Description

    Hi, I'm Dada J and I manage a 100 acre campus that includes a meditation / yoga retreat center, farm, a couple of families and a wonderland of upland granite bush. The center is owned by a volunteer organisation based around the understanding of all life being part of the same family.

    What else ...

    Wild and rugged, the bush around here is breath-taking. Sculptured by weather and bush, the granite forms a landscape of cleft escarpments, boulders and watercourses inhabited by kangaroos, wallabies, koala and much more under the canopy of gum and wattle trees.
    We're a meditation / yoga retreat center / organic farm in the middle of this and we also host a popular annual music and wellbeing festival (15 October).
