Learn to plant water

In 3 short years we have taken a barren, hard as concrete patch of land in semi-arid Australia (Lightning Ridge) and transformed it into an abundant, thriving forrest eco-system that is well on it’s way to sustaining itself and us in fruits, timber, vegetables and nuts into the future.

It uses approximately 1/10th the amount of water our other main vegetable garden uses and is easily managed in less than 4 hours a month.

We would love to share with you how to do it for yourself in your backyard or small block – OR at scale on your farm.

We want to see water return to our landscape in western NSW and we think we have found a way to do it!

Come and join us to learn how!
