The Beauty of God’s Creations

I hope you enjoy these little pieces of nature as much as I did.
This plant looked like some that live under the sea. It was growing literally out of a rock. I am constantly amazed by how things just want to grow and that God has designed such beauty.
spiky fruit
spiky leaf – This plant was seriously amazing, seriously armoured and the prickles were soft unless touched straight on where they left a stinging sensation
orange grub – this had a series of orange grubs in this ‘bean’ like ‘pod’ created out of a host Euclypt.

Preparations Day One & Two

The last couple of days have begun and been busy organising things for ‘Summerfest’. We are grateful to all who have volunteered time and resources over the last while and especially the last couple of days organising, sourcing, gathering, delivering… Thank you so much to our neighbours for giving us their wood piles to put in the systems and to everyone who has contributed newspaper, cardboard, wooden pallets, cardboard bales, time etc.

Another load of wood from the neighbours – thank you!!

We kept imagining this being planted out and created into
a beautiful forest again! It has so much potential.

what is happening around some of the woodpiles at the
neighbours. They are naturally creating living
systems. It was really exciting to see what is happening.
There were some different soil creatures,
beetles, ants, insects etc beginning. Not much else, but there is life.
I feel there was much that I ‘couldn’t’ see also doing lots of work.
