In this video, we share how we manage solar power, rainwater harvesting, and more — all designed to support a self-sufficient, low impact lifestyle on our 60 year old permaculture farm.
Built over decades, our systems are simple, sustainable, and rooted in a deep connection to the land. Whether you're starting your own homestead, planning an off-grid setup, or just curious about sustainable living, we hope this detailed look offers practical insight and inspiration.

We are sisters, Julia and Anastasia Vanderbyl. A few years ago, we began a journey to live a life in perfect harmony with nature. A life of caring for animals, growing fruit, planting trees, gardening, cooking, creating, building and learning to live with the land.
In this time, nature has taught us more than we could have ever imagined.

Our environmental films document the landscape, the lessons we’ve learnt and our work as regenerative farmers here on Bundjalung Country.

We live on the land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal People of the Bundjalung Nation. We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Country we live on and recognise their continuing connection to the land and waters. We thank them for protecting this rainforest and its ecosystems since time immemorial.
