One of our young Art Groups had heaps of fun making Lighthouse Night Lights - if you want to do this at home, hot glue some clay pots together, paint and decorate and add a small clicker light to the top - easy fun project for young ones 💡🎉😄

We had a blast facilitating some art with the children at Spell Garden Farm for their new farm shop. Wonderful community farm on the Bellarine. Ended the afternoon with some dowsing to locate a spot for the next project we’ll be involved in there 💖

We had a great time facilitating this art project with the children at Spell Garden Farm for their new farm shop. Children collaborated to paint their impressions of the community farm 💚

What a day!!

We were so busy I forgot to take photos!!

We had our winter working bee, as did the Earth Mammas Sanctuary - we got herbs and veggies in the ground, took out some weeds, harvested nettle, gathered eggs and lemons.

The Farm kids got together, guided by Possum Cottage Studio folks, and created this beautiful mural for our shop counter.

After all the helpful hands went home, we had a little fun Dowsing - we still have so much to learn about our world.
