The Venue...
High Valley Dawn Permaculture Farm
Welcome to High Valley Dawn, where the seeds of a dream sprouted and flourished into a vibrant 140-acre permaculture oasis over the past decade. Less than 10 kilometers from the coastal charm of Yeppoon, QLD, this haven of sustainability and community is more than just a venue – it's a living testament to the beauty of a harmonious relationship with the land.
Our farm is a canvas painted with the lush strokes of nature's palette, featuring a 2-acre market garden bursting with life, a sprawling 2-acre food forest embracing diversity, and a bush tucka food forest where edible wonders thrive. The heartbeat of the land echoes through the presence of various domestic farm animals and friendly working pets, creating a tapestry of coexistence.
As you explore, you'll discover the magic of our sustainable features, from the earth fridge nestled underground – a testament to our commitment to minimizing waste – to the desalination plant fashioned from the bountiful gifts of certain trees. Dams glisten under the Queensland sun, providing life-giving water to the flourishing ecosystems. High Valley Dawn isn't just a venue; it's a living, breathing entity, shaped by the hands of a small, dedicated community that embraces the self-sufficient lifestyle.
Join us on the journey to going off-grid, where joy and learning intertwine. The farm extends an invitation for you to not just be a guest but a participant in the symphony of sustainable living. High Valley Dawn beckons – come, have a blast, and immerse yourself in the vibrant energy of a community that thrives on the magic of self-sufficiency.

The Event...
In the heart of High Valley Dawn, the Harvest awaits – and what a great way to celebrate harvest than a festival - Harvestival... a three-day celebration woven with threads of family, community, and shared joy. Picture a space where information flows freely, connections deepen on a personal level, and laughter dances in the air like confetti. This isn't just an event; it's a canvas for the expression of the human spirit.
Five workshop hubs stand ready to ignite your curiosity and passion:
- The Temple, Run by the Synergy Rising Community - whispers promises of rejuvenation, self-discovery and the divine.
- The Bush 'UN'School, A massive kids wonderland run by Homegrown Nature Play - with its own enchanting program, invites the little ones to explore and create memories.
- The 'Homesteading Hub', run by the PermAlchemist - allows you to discover the art of utilizing your harvest, emphasizing the value of not just growing but cherishing our food.
- Step into the 'Calm Craft Corner', - an all-ages peaceful haven where the art of crafting meets the serenity of nature. Let your creativity flow as you engage with crafty materials and connect with the tranquility of the surroundings.
- Finally, amidst the verdant landscape, explore the gardens themselves – with 'Garden Gatheringz' - a space of hands on practical workshops, enlightening guest speakers, tours and animal feedings. 'Konscious Korner' - the captivating allure of music produced by the plants. Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of plant music, where a frequency MIDI controller unveils the hidden melodies of the green companions. Join in the interactive space, where you can listen to the plants creating music and even jam along using instruments. It's not just a workshop; it's a symphony of nature, inviting you to experience the harmony that exists between humans and the botanical realm.
The heartbeat of Harvestival pulses through a beautiful stage and dance floor, where the sacred fire flickers, and the world-renowned Funktion-One speakers promise an auditory experience like no other. Here, beneath the stars, song and dance become the language of the soul.
Partnering with the highly reputable event management team of Tranquil Sounds Productions, Harvestival isn't just an event; it's a curated experience crafted with sincerity and passion. As the sun sets over High Valley Dawn, we invite you to join us in this celebration of life, connection, and the magic that unfolds when hearts beat in unison. Come, be part of the Harvest – where every moment is a brushstroke on the canvas of shared memories.
