Heartland Journeys

Explore the places | stories | nature
across the Gondwana Link

Kaya! Welcome!

Gondwana Link invites you on a journey through some of the most biodiverse ecosystems on earth: from tall forests, slender-stemmed mallee and wildflower-rich heath to the world’s largest temperate woodland.

Heartland Journeys can help connect you to part of the world’s oldest continuous culture and deepen your understanding and experience of these living landscapes.

Explore their intricacies and richness: tiny honey possums as pollinators; malleefowl that incubate their eggs in nesting mounds of compost; an incredible variety of plants; and inspiring community successes in restoring ecological health.

A young farmer’s fresh outlook on the land

Young Tenterden farmer Monty House shares his perspectives on landcare and the work he is doing to improve soil health and biodiversity on the family farm. The issues he addresses include the fate of paddock trees due to the expansion of cropping. His thoughts on this issue are sobering. Many people feel distressed seeing the piles of bulldozed trees, so it’s good to have this issue discussed openly: https://heartlandjourneys.com.au/stories/montyhouse/
