Traditional Owners of the Australian landscape burnt country to rejuvenate it. Fire encourages new growth, resulting in more food for humans and other fauna. They did this ensure a consistent food supply.
Undertaking a cool, slow burning of the landscape during winter months ensures the fire does not scald the soils nor kill plants and it allows the fauna to move out of the way.
We burnt part of our woodlands with Traditional Owners this month to study the results. We are hoping by doing this the Spear Grass harvest in January 2022 will be as plentiful as the one January 2021 post the bushfires.
The burning is gentle and slow. This takes time as the fire should always be controlled. Walking with it, slowing it, encouraging it ensures the best result.
Working with Traditional Owners allows us to take a new perspective on land management resulting in us beginning to understand how, as humans, we co-exist with the landscape.
Feel at home in our secluded, architect-designed off-grid guest lodge. Surrounded by nothing but nature as far as the eye can see.
Cool and breezy inthe summer and cosy with wood-fired central heatingin the winter.
We acknowledge the First Nations Peoples as the first inhabitants and traditional custodians of the Yambulla valley and surrounding areas.
We recognise and value their continuing connection to the land and culture.
