A New Year's Invitation to Plant Trees and Grow Together


As the New Year approaches, the Initation Festival is filled with gratitude and excitement. This festival isn’t just a celebration of new beginnings; it’s a chance to connect deeply with the land that sustains us and to nurture it for future generations. We’re thrilled to share that this year, our festival will feature a special initiative focused on honoring and caring for our environment, and we’d love for you to be a part of it.


At the heart of our festival’s mission is a profound respect for the land we’re privileged to celebrate. Our event site, a cherished piece of nature, is more than just a backdrop; it’s a living, breathing entity that we must care for and protect. To guide us in this important task, we are honored to introduce you to Lindsay, our dedicated steward of the land.

Lindsay’s journey with this land began in 1990. When he first arrived, the landscape was stark, with only two trees dotting the horizon. Over the decades, Lindsay has transformed a different part of the landscape into a lush, thriving sanctuary by planting over 3,000 trees. His commitment to the environment is nothing short of inspiring, and his work has turned a barren area into a vibrant ecosystem.




Lindsay’s dedication extends beyond just planting trees. He is deeply committed to his community and has actively sought ways to improve and uplift it. Notably, he ran for Mayor, driven by a vision to enhance productivity and efficiency within the Southern Downs Council. Although he didn’t win the election, his intentions to foster positive change remain strong.

This New Year’s, we invite you to join us in supporting Lindsay’s ongoing efforts. One of our festival activities will involve planting trees alongside Lindsay, offering a unique opportunity to contribute to a meaningful cause and to be part of something that will grow and flourish in the years to come.


By participating in this tree-planting program, you will help support Lindsay’s incredible work and contribute to the land’s continued vitality. It’s a beautiful way to celebrate the new year and ensure that our shared environment continues to thrive.


We warmly invite all nature lovers and festival-goers to take part in this special activity. Let’s come together to honor the land, support Lindsay’s inspiring work, and plant the seeds for a greener, more vibrant future.

Here’s to a New Year filled with hope, growth, and a deeper connection to the earth. We look forward to seeing you at the festival and working together to make a difference.

Warm regards,
