Thousands of ancient grass trees are thriving amongst this serpent patterned stone. You know when you are nearly at Serpentine Ridge, native Palm Trees start to appear on the journey & tlhere is something different that you feel.....Serpentine - Spiritual Divine, vibrational energy coming from being around this stone can be palpably felt & has amazing spiritual growth & healing qualities, some things are better experienced than described as you will find out ...
Bunya tree Planting, ancient & delicious, a symbol of Cultural resilience here at Serpentine Ridge we honor and respect the "Buny Bunyi" within Aboriginal Culture is a sacred tree. The Bunya nuts (traditionally gathered by men) were used to trade for food, information, new knowledge, and even for arranging marriages & resolving issues of Law. We are creating a "Bunya Trail" each tree lovingly planted on our days of getting together for gathering & celebration. come & be part of this beautiful process, you can come & visit the growing tree you planted & continue to in future events & future visits to the property.....

Marc has played a big role in revegetating many areas within the Cooloola & Sunshine Coast region & over the years has been involved in wildlife rescue. He shares his understanding of culture & connection to educate & inspire .... many young & old may have experienced Marc's unique way of having fun & learning with his JoyologyNow Rainbow Shows at many community events & festivals & Conscious Cartooning murals & homeschoolers education workbook journals on connecting to the land & learning something good in a fun way.
Together Marc & Milly make a great team & share their wisdom & love for country & playful in their connection with community. They have created together this beautiful Serpentine Ridge Welcoming Center for community to come together for a brief moment in time & take home from their experiences & knowledge to their own places where they live to find and even greater connection.
