Launching in November and perfect for gardening. Find your local stockist here. ~ Rachel Ward's career began on screen, with standout roles in classics like The Thorn Birds before she turned her skills to directing acclaimed works including Beautiful Kate. In her sixties, Rachel's energy and focus shifted to regenerative agriculture, swapping film sets for fence lines and embarking on an ambitious overhaul of the beef farm her and her husband Bryan Brown had owned for thirty-odd years. Her brilliant documentary Rachel's Farm captures this shift as Rachel moves into her soil-health evangelist era, charting her mission to restore land and the food system. Today, she continues that momentum through Farmthru, her paddock-to-plate project designed to disrupt how regenerative farm produce is made available to consumers.  Rachel lives, works and tends to her cattle on the land of the Gumbaynggirr people in the Nambucca Valley, New South Wales. Before we get to Rachel's chat, Maddie and Emily are drinking Greek Frappe (metrio me gala) even though it's 9 degrees outside. Recipe from Philoxenia: A Seat At My Table by Kon Karapanagiotidis. Emily is dreaming of abundance in the garden. Maddie is going to try to make her own tomato powder by Lauren at Oaklea Veggie Patch. They both visited good mate Pip Steele Wareham at The Garden at Moorfield and it was just like old times in that Pip was followed around by Maddie and Emily asking lots of annoying questions.

CLIMATE ACTION SHOWPRODUCED BY  Vivien LangfordSeptember 22nd 2025 THE GREAT KOALA NATIONAL PARKGuests:Mark Graham - Restoration Ecologist Virginia Young - Director at Wilderness Australia and global expert on carbon sequestration. https://www.greenleft.org.au/content/wilderness-australia-we-need-real-emissions-reductions-not-offsets The most joyful news after decades of civic action: logging banned in the forests dedicated to The Great Koala National Park.As NSW Environment Minister Penny Sharpe said  “These amazing old-growth forests are among the world's top biodiversity hotspots – home to more than 100 threatened species including greater gliders, the powerful owl and yellow-bellied gliders.”At long last we can praise the state government although there is still a lot to do before this is guaranteed in perpetuity.  The Gumbaynggirr and others will be soon weeding and protecting the land around their sacred sites. This park will offer water security for towns along the coast, a safe habitat for countless species and a natural treasure for us all to visit. However, the global Climate, deranged by the fossil fuels we continue to extract for export or burn here, will continue to dry out and threaten these forests. The old growth forest sequesters a lot of carbon but we must not be complacent and think we can use it to offset expanded coal and gas burning through ACCU schemes which are most likely to benefit the biggest carbon emitters in exhuiberant expansions., https://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/news/great-koala-national-park  We speak to Mark Graham who, like so many others, has risked a lot to advocate for these Gondwanaland forests.  He pays tribute to many of the groups and individuals who have worked for this achgievement and firsat among them are the Gumbaynggirr People whose traditional lands are on the mid North Coast, stretching from the Nambucca River in the south to the Clarence River in the north, and inland to the Great Dividing Range. Their country is associated with the area around Coffs Harbour and includes beaches, rivers, estuaries, and mountains.  Then we have a song from Carmen Modjito inspired by Greta Thunberg "Our house is on fire" Virginia Young  says that Carbon Offsets are used to delay real action on Climate Change and Australia is one of the countries most relying on them instead of rapidly moving away from coal oil and gas.https://wilderness.org.au/forest-carbon-explainedShe speaks of her experience with the Mickisaw Cree People in Canada protecting a freshwater delta in Buffalo National Park and the Kaiapo people in  the Amazon who will be  present at the upcoming Climate Conference in Belem this November.She says “We also need more investment in energy infrastructure, so local councils, small businesses and other organisations can easily decarbonise. Everywhere, we need to be thinking, ‘What can we actually do to reduce our real emissions?'.”  

Actor, director, playwright, and singer Brittanie Shipway has worn just about every creative hat there is – and worn them brilliantly. From starring in The Dismissal, Chess, and The Pirates of Penzance to writing her own acclaimed play A Letter for Molly, Brittanie's career is a tapestry of performance, storytelling, and cultural connection.In this conversation, Brittanie shares the vision behind her reimagined Once on This Island at the Hayes Theatre which blends the show's Caribbean story with the voices, languages, and traditions of a richly diverse cast. We explore the importance she places on the Gumbaynggirr part of her heritage, the mentors and moments that shaped her, the joys and challenges of creating new Australian works, and why she's determined to make theatre a place where everyone feels welcome. She is a warm, thoughtful, and passionate artist determined to expand the stage for all.Once on This Island, directed by Brittanie Shipway, plays at the Hayes Theatre until August 31. Brittanie will also be directing The Witches of Eastwick, this year's "neglected musical" at the Hayes, with performances 8-11 October.

Friends! Comrades! Welcome to another episode of the Radio Reversal podcast, continuing our series on Disaster, Crisis & Collective Futures. If you haven't already listened to the first couple of episodes in this series - never fear! You can jump in fresh here, or head back and listen to Episode 12 - After the Flood & Episode 13 - Disaster Communism with Nick Southall. In these episodes, we chatted about weather events like Cyclone Alfred & what happens during “disasters”: how the parameters of political possibility shift, sometimes incrementally, and sometimes all at once. We talked about two very different expressions of these political ruptures: “disaster capitalism,” where corporations and the state use these events as opportunities to expand state and corporate power and to find new frontiers of capitalist exploitation, and “disaster communism,” in which communities self-organise to support one another, forge networks of mutual aid and care, and build a genuinely radical sense of “class power.”This week, Nat, Jonno & I (Anna) decided to focus a bit more on the way that these dynamics operate in the specific conditions of settler colonialism, especially here in so-called australia. We're engaging with these topics as settlers, living uninvited on unceded Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands, and this is perhaps part of why we are so interested in the way that crises operate as key moments in which settlers are brought into new forms of colonial complicity. In particular, we are digging into a concept that we've been talking about for a few years now: the idea of “crisis colonialism.” We use this as a shorthand way to think about how settler colonial states use periods of crisis - economic depressions, world wars, ecological disasters - as fuel for settler colonial nation-building. In listening back to and editing this week's episode, I realised (largely thanks to a generative conversation with Dr. Jamal Nabulsi, whose incendiary and vital work you can find here and here) that a lot of what we're thinking about in this episode is affect - how people feel during crises, and how those collective emotions are operationalised and weaponised for a variety of political projects. This is a key part of both “disaster capitalism” and “disaster communism,” which we dig into in more detail at the beginning of this episode. But affect is also an important part of our analysis of “crisis colonialism,” and especially the way that settler colonies use moments of crisis to manufacture and secure settler consent for colonial governance through a rotating set of strategies, ranging from fear-based moral panics through to the construction of ideas of “mateship” and community. So in this week's episode, we're looking closer at these dynamics. How exactly do settler colonial states take advantage of periods of crisis? How do these moments become repurposed as fuel for nation-building? How does “securitisation” and policing fit into this process? And as settlers who are engaged in communities of struggle and committed to disrupting settler colonialism… how can we ensure that our collective efforts in these moments don't become fuel for the colonial project that caused the crisis in the first place? This is a big, juicy episode, which means that we talk about (or reference) a bunch of important scholarship that helps us to understand the origins of colonial racial capitalism and the “disaster” horizon of the present. In kicking off with some belated “definitional work,” as Nat puts it, we start by sketching out a working understanding of “disaster capitalism.” We continue our chat about Naomi Klein's 2007 “The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism and her formative analysis of the way that corporations and states alike use periods of disaster, or “shocks,” to cultivate new “frontiers” to exploit. Klein talks about a number of examples of this phenomenon: from the ways that the destructive impacts of “natural disasters” like the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami can be used to create the conditions for massive land grabs and accelerated privatisation and development under the guise of “reconstruction”; through to the construction of an entire fear-based industry of “homeland security” after the 9/11 terror attacks in the US. We follow this with a very brief chat about Antony Loewenstein's (2015) Disaster Capitalism: Making a Killing out of Catastrophe, where he expands and updates Klein's analysis to trace the diverse ways that disasters have become “big business,” looking at - as he puts it - the way that “companies cash in on or­ganized misery in a hidden world of privatized detention centers, militarized private security, aid profiteering, and destructive mining.” A thread that we allude to in the podcast but don't extend is that these works are both interested in the affective impact of disasters on populations: the way that the confusion and “shock” of these events can be quickly turned into fear and suspicion which takes root within the established furrows of colonialism, racism and white supremacy; and which forms the basis of a new economy of privatised security, mass incarceration, and surveillance. Competing against this economy of fear, however, is a counter-economy of generosity, care and radical love that also takes root during disasters. We briefly return to Nick Southall's brilliant account of “disaster communism,” discussed at length in last week's show. We then turn our attention to the “permanent crisis” of settler colonialism, a phrase drawn from Robin D G Kelley's 2017 piece “Crisis: Danger, Opportunity & The Unknown,” in which he describes how colonial racial capitalism “produces something akin to a permanent state of crisis” because it is “built on fictions that must be constantly shored up, not for its victims but for those who stand to benefit.” We trace these contradictory fictions all the way back to the emergence of penal colonialism as a response to the crisis of prison overcrowding in Europe, drawing on the work of Michel Foucault, Cedric Robinson, Walter Rodney and Sylvia Federici to emphasise that penal colonialism was both a form of, and a factory for, crisis-management techniques. Finally, we reflect on the many, violent fictions that have been required to enable and sustain the settler colonial project in so-called australia. We draw here on the incredible body of work by First Nations scholars, including Mununjahli & South Sea Islander scholar Chelsea Watego, Darumbal and South Sea Islander scholar and journalist Amy McQuire, Amangu Yamatji theorist Crystal McKinnon, Yuin scholar and criminologist Amanda Porter, Meintagk & Tanganekald scholar Irene Watson, Gumbaynggirr historian Gary Foley and Goenpul scholar Aileen Moreton-Robinson (among many others!) to understand the foundational contradictions of settler colonialism, and why they create the conditions of “permanent crisis” here in so-called australia.From here, I draw out a point that I explore in my PhD thesis (supervised by Chelsea Watego, David Singh, Liz Strakosch & Alissa Macoun), in which I argued that Indigenous peoples' unceded sovereignty and persistent resistance to colonisation represents a foundational and irresolvable contradiction for settler colonial states, which renders them constantly on the precipice of political crisis. This foundational crisis leads settler colonial states to develop robust and sophisticated techniques of crisis-management, ranging from repressive apparatus of policing, prisons, surveillance and punitive systems of state control; through to piecemeal liberal concessions, reforms, and promises of “inclusion.” So what does this mean for how we approach the coming storm? We end this episode with some reflections on how we can build our collective ability to resist colonial complicity: how to refuse the promise of liberal reform; how to reject all attempts to narrow our care, grief and rage to those deemed “grievable” by the colonial state; and how we might work to align ourselves instead with everyone, everywhere, who is fighting to dismantle the colonial capitalist death machinery that causes the “permanent crisis” of the present.

Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Mark 5: 21-43 The Very Reverend Naomi Cooke is an ordained Anglican priest and is currently the Dean of the Cathedral of Grafton in regional NSW's Bundjalung and Gumbaynggirr country.  Naomi's spiritual formation has been shaped by a rich tapestry of ecumenical experiences. Her childhood faith was nurtured within the vibrant parish and youth movements of the Roman Catholic Church alongside the invitational discipleship of Sydney Anglican youth groups. She studied at a Baptist theological college, developed her vocation within the gentle and inclusive Anglo-Catholic traditions of regional QLD and NSW, worked within the democratic and inclusive ethos of the Uniting Church of Australia, and served for two decades as a School Chaplain in Independent Schools. With degrees in Theology and Arts (English Literature), she was amongst the first women in Australia to be ordained by a female Anglican Bishop and is only the 9th woman in Australia to be installed as a Dean of an Anglican Cathedral. Naomi works closely with First Nations communities in the journey towards Reconciliation and her ministry includes the creativity of Godly Play, Taize prayer, Prayer Spaces and Labyrinth reflections.

Two experts join the Mongabay Newscast to discuss the decline in koala populations in the Australian state of New South Wales (NSW), even as city councils and the government green light development projects on koala habitats that aren't being replaced by biodiversity offset schemes, ecologist Yung En Chee of the University of Melbourne, explains. Meanwhile, the promised Great Koala National Park has been delayed by NSW Premier Chris Minns, even as his state allows logging of koala habitat within the park borders while he tries to set up a carbon credit scheme to monetize the protected area, says journalist Stephen Long with Australia Institute. “I'm not sure how long this failure has to persist before we decide that we really ought to change course,” says Chee of the biodiversity credit schemes, which seem to be based on outdated data, and don't come close to satisfying their ‘no net loss' of biodiversity goals.

Inaugural Episode: An interview with Melanie Briggs In this inaugural episode of Birth Time: the podcast, we have a yarn with Aboriginal midwife legend Melanie Briggs. For those who have seen Birth Time: the documentary, you will know that we interviewed Melanie about the Birthing on Country Project and Waminda. We catch up with Mel to find out where things are at since the release of the doco. Melanie is an Aboriginal woman, mother of two and midwife. She is a descendant of the Dharawal and Gumbaynggirr peoples, living on Wandandian country within the Yuin nation. Melanie is a senior midwife and Birthing on Country Project Officer at Waminda, which is a Women's Health and Welfare Aboriginal Corporation. Waminda is Aboriginal-led and community controlled, and guided by the principles of self-determination. Melanie was the first endorsed Aboriginal midwife in NSW, and the second endorsed Aboriginal midwife in Australia. We talk with Mel about Birthing on Country (BoC), which is a continuation of thousands of years of knowledge and practice, which provides holistic maternal, child and family health care that embeds cultural integrity and safety during pregnancy, labour, birth and postnatal care. BoC is about Aboriginal women from community led by Elders and Aunties, to taking back control for their Minga's (mums) to birth healthy beautiful Gudjaga's (children) in a safe space that is centred around culture and then throughout the continuation of Minga's and Gidjaga's life cycle.

One of Australia's greatest storytellers, Troy Cassar-Daley holds the record for most Golden Guitar Awards cementing the proud Gumbaynggirr and Bundjalung as one of country music's greatest icons. Troy's new album BETWEEN THE FIRES is out now, recorded at his late mother's home, it is a powerfully moving collection of songs and stories.  Without hyperbolising, this may be one of the best conversations Alexei has ever recorded. Troy has picked some films that resonate deeply with him and those emotional connections prove to be fertile ground for laughs and some top-tier cinematic celebration. Complete with a staff pick of a western that needs to be crystallised into the canon of cinema's greats, the TCD visit might be the perfect episode of THE LAST VIDEO STORE.

Coco Elder - The Never Never is on at Art2Muse Gallery until 18th September.  Bellingen Arts Trail 10-12th November  'My artwork is based on observations of the landscape and flora, notably in Ku-Ring-Gai Chase National Park, and more recently in the Bellingen Shire. My initial study in Landscape Architecture has inspired my interest in geology and indigenous botanical landscapes. Overtime, I have witnessed the bush thrive in the wet, fight or recoil in the dry, and brought back to life after the fires. I hope to transcribe reverence for the Australian bush and to reveal the mysterious and alluring qualities of our native plants and the lie of the land.The natural landscape presents as an intriguing paradox. Up close, the bush is an unruly entanglement of prickly menace; from a distance, are distinct interlocking shapes that can be ordered by the eye into Cezanne's geometry. Patterns that appear on the macro level are reiterated at the micro. Whilst bodies of water lead the eye in and outwards through reflections, there is a mysterious chasm in time, yet it also appears infinite. Shadows of texture hem and define vibrations of light. I endeavour to capture some of these subtle ambiguities in my work.I retrace the place, coming closer to the essence of form, yet ironically remove it, by carving back through the surface. The image becomes a visual description that blends aspects of botanical documentation (like the early Australian artists); a journey through nature, (influenced by Japanese scrolls); and a personal expression through patterns of whimsy, and reflections on the past inhabitants, the Carigal and Gumbaynggirr people, whose presence are keenly felt.'thanks Coco for your time and good luck with the Bellingen arts trail!

What's worse, is that these subsidies are paying for ecological destruction, the loss of our critical carbon stocks, and the extinction of species like the Koala and the greater Glider.Our native forests can be most beneficial to us by being protected and being allowed to continue to grow, to store carbon and to provide healthy ecosystems for people and animals alike.We call on the Treasurer to stop prolonging the inevitable. We want to see a rapid and ambitious end to native forest logging outlined in the next Statement of Corporate Intent.

In many cultures, being bilingual or multilingual is commonplace. In Australia, while some schools are implementing language lessons and bilingual programs, this is not as common in early childhood educational settings. But some childcare centres are bucking the trend and embedding additional languages into their everyday programming.

The earth is a beautiful place, but it's also delicate. With so many people and animals depending on the land for their daily needs from food sources to places of safety from disasters or violence-the ecosystem cannot survive if we don't take care of it!  What is a Solution? Listen to this episode as Ethan discusses Regenerative Agriculture, Diversity, Holistic Management, and More... __________ Who is Ethan Gordon? Ethan Gordon is a Ph.D. Candidate with the Institute for Sustainable Futures, University of Technology Sydney. He uses discourse analysis to explore regenerative agriculture and other ecological alternatives to extractive agricultural models. Through action research alongside the Institute of Ecological Agriculture (IEA), Ethan aims to understand how transformation can be facilitated in agriculture to prevent further ecosystem degradation and social unrest. IEA is a co-operative of farmers, consultants, and educators dedicated to, and advocating for, healthy agricultural landscapes and communities. Together, they are developing an accreditation designed to support the ethical and professional standards of consultants, educators, and trainers in ecological (regenerative) agriculture. This is important work to Ethan because it speaks directly to his family's custodianship of Moffat Falls, a pastoral property located in the lands of the Dunghutti, Gumbaynggirr, and Anaiwan Nations. Moffat Falls is a steer trade operation. Through holistic landscape management, they utilise their grazing animals for carbon sequestration and are early adopters of carbon farming. __________ Website:  https://www.ethangordon.com.au/ __________ Social Media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ethanforearth/ https://www.instagram.com/ethanforearth/ __________ Recent publication: https://www.ethangordon.com.au/publications _________ UTS Profile: https://profiles.uts.edu.au/Ethan.Gordon Dig Deeper Club: https://soillearningcenter.com/digdeeper See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When Yorta Yorta/Gunaikurnai theatre-maker Andrea James quit her job as a legal secretary to pursue a career in the arts, it was because she saw the theatre as 'a place where truth gets told.'

Today, Cosmos journalist Matilda Handsley-Davis talks to Luke Williams. Luke is a proud descendant of the Gumbaynggirr people of northern NSW. He is currently completing his PhD project at RMIT University, and this project involves assessing the dietary safety of a range of native Australian foods, including traditional Aboriginal foods. He is also exploring how food regulatory frameworks can better accommodate the traditional knowledge held by First Nations people into the overall risk assessment of traditional food products that are being developed for commercial markets.As part of his PhD research, Luke is actively bringing together the research sector and the national food regulatory body, Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) with a range of First Nations stakeholders. The ultimate goal of Luke's research is to facilitate First Nations food sovereignty through an Indigenous-led native foods industry.Find the science of everything at the Cosmos Magazine website Subscribe to Cosmos Magazine (print) or the Cosmos WeeklyWatch and listen to all our Cosmos BriefingsSpecial 10% discount on Cosmos magazine print subscriptions (1 or 2 year), or 1 year Cosmos Weekly subscriptions for Cosmos Briefing podcast listeners!  Use coupon code COSMOSPOD in our shop.
