Spring in the Rainforest

Life in the Australian jungle is magical. Our slow life in the countryside is full of joy as we work hard in the garden and care for baby goats.

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.

I am a simple man i see the “nature" I click

[ginolorenzo]

Men of culture. Thank you for gracing us with your presence.

[modguy]

21 million people surely did love nature for the first 10 secs of the video

[danieltaylor]

Thank you for this video.
When I watched it all the troubles and anxiety of life just faded away. I think this is how we are supposed to live. You've sparked a dream within me.

[klnskljafdskl]

Yeah, like anyone clicked because of the "nature".

[ooolol]

I swear i clicked it to watch nature, it's beautiful, isn't it 😊

It's took me to the age of 62 years to learn to live with the passion and love of nature that these girls display here in these videos..beautiful message of hope for a new life purpose for all kindered souls.

You did a great job raising these young ladies. We need more people like y'all all around the world. Absolutely Beautiful.

Thank you my Favorite Granola Gals. I really needed to watch your video to get some peace. Real bad week with multiple children losing their lives due to pure evil people. If people treated their children as you all care for your "children" the world would be a much better place.

Love you all. Brightest Blessings. I really needed to see you ladies beauty, your sweetness and love of nature.

[morimori]

This is the perfect fusion of modern technology and Mother Nature.

[maleko]

Such a wonderful expression of alignment. Both in video and narrative. Which is just simple observation of one's life. Thank you for being here with us.

This video reminds me of my childhood when I lived close to nature, played with animals, walked through forests, found nice places. It was a great time, currently living in the city with work routines, meetings, stress, constant worries, I never had the same feeling of peace back then.

[justinlaporte]

Many live life following just their minds and abstractions. When you learn to live from the heart, the world is a totally different place. May all find their hearts and avoid any unnecessary suffering.
Beautiful video! The land looks amazing and life style is something I would love to be apart of.

[musaadfelton]

It's so amazing that you can take a man to every corner of the globe where we can see the most beautiful places on earth but a man will still be distracted by the beauty of a women. There is just no beauty in this world that can comfort a man like the beauty of a women😊
