On the back of Covid, what better way to regroup, to share, to sit by the fireside and come back to our senses? Share this post around, tag your friends. We are wanting to know numbers and get a sense of how many trips we should plan for. Let us know in the comments like this -I'm Interested - I'm very interested - I'm in. Then we will contact you and yarn. 1. All trips are base camp focused, just a 30 minute walk in, so pack weight is not an issue. We then set up camp and everyone does what they want from there. Head out on day walks, be part of group offerings if you want, go solo if you want, the entire week is yours to choose how you engage. 2. Out there we break into groups, fire crew, water crew, cooking crew and ceremony crew. Everyone plays a role, our goal is to forge the conditions that enable healthy community building. But importantly, you meet the place how you want to. 3.Wild Walkers goal is to bridge nature and culture. You are a part of that. If you want to lead, if you want to offer your gifts to the community, your services, when out there you have a chance to be with a group of people and share yourself, share your life passion. The wild walkers community will get to know you and you can promote your service back to the community, that's our ecological economy. Talk with us about details of that. Our goal is that by the end of the year we can raise 60k of profit for the Tarkine Wild School. So the more trips we run, the more kids benefit. It's an epic win win. Once again, Let us know in the comments like this -I'm Interested - I'm very interested - I'm in. Wildly yours, WILD WALKERS

20.01.2022 Hey folks, Progress getting made here. The Wild Walkers logo is now complete, see the image below. We tried this and that and everything in between. How to best capture nature integration with culture? Well, it kept coming back to the Black cockatoo feather. For all of us, the Black cocky is just special. ... It traverses every corner of our state and graces us in our back yards nibbling on our Banksias. Its story is one of being in awe of it in the middle of the Tarkine, but equally awed by it as it flys through our city streets in search of grubs. Hence it feels like a perfectly simple symbol of nature and culture. Down the track, to the left of the logo, we want a human face, with landscape etched into the face, but for now, small steps.. We love the simplicity of it, and it just feels right. Hope your guys like it, we think it will be great on Hoodies, t shirts, hats etc.. Wild Walkers

19.01.2022 Hey folks, Wild Walkers Integrators are those folk in the community that are dedicated to offering their service and their gifts back to the world and the Wild Walkers community in order to rebridge nature and culture. They are diverse parts of our ecological community that offer their own unique offerings back in the daily world to support the integration of lessons learnt from nature. ... The Leap. Darvis Walker is running six month rights of passage journeys for men. The program is called the leap. The first weekend just took place and the men all headed out together to a beautiful wild corner of Tassie. The purpose of the leap is for men to unpack their lives, to forge and refine their life purpose. Over six months, Darvis is guiding these journeys and in the process is podcasting the entire thing. The leap is a raw and honest look inside the world of mens work, the search for meaning and the challenges and obstacles we can overcome with support and a spirit of solidarity. Check out episode one on buzz sprout here, its all free.. Are you an integrator? Touch base with your ideas and your projects. It takes a tribe to walk the wild back into the world.

17.01.2022 This interview piece with a traditional Aboriginal fire practitioner speaks so powerfully of insightful relationship with landscape. Wed love your thoughts here, he really nails it very simply. Traditional Aboriginal Australians were true Wild Walkers. Their identity was forged by place, so the way they engaged with landscape reflected that, deep understanding over deep time. They simply manifested, as we do from their identity and because their identity included landscap...e at its core, they lived in a stunning balance. They were married to landscape, weve divorced it. Thats a simplistic way to put it, but its true and it provides us with a wonderfully simplistic solution.. Remarrying landscape! The truth is were all indigenous, weve all evolved from somewhere. The only difference being that in the Australian example, theyve simply existed here for vast time and hence those that carry their traditions on, also carry vast knowledge of this particular land and how to manage it. Give this fella and his crew control of managing our landscapes, not faceless bureaucrats that have no relationship with place. Its ridiculous. Forging a contemporary indigenous culture The Wild Walker mission is to evolve toward a contemporary indigenous culture. This requires first a practice as community of going back to landscapes. Secondly it requires a deep nurturance of and partnership with traditional Aboriginal Australians liked this man, and countless like him so that we can learn and integrate their wisdom into a collective wisdom. All that we need to achieve this is right in front of us, but its a long game. In the face of the challenges in front of us, we say game on. Wild Walkers

15.01.2022 WE'RE BACK! The unprecedented pandemic of COVID-19 has left us, like most, with a lot of time for reflection. We have been quiet in this space for a while, but behind the scenes have been evolving and growing the Wild Walkers concept in response to these times of change. This post is to provide some clarity of where we're at currently and our intentions for the future. Over the course of the summer we ran a number of fundraising initiatives including our first official journe...y into the Tarkine, a successful crowdfund campaign and a number of smaller ventures. The total funds raised were $12k and have gone into purchase of infrastructure first for Wild Walkers Journeys and to eventually be used in the Tarkine Wild School. This includes an Adapt-a-pod, stay tuned for video on these wondrous contraptions soon. The remaining funds will predominantly go into our website build, where we will soon be launching the Wild Walkers Marketplace. This is another project that has been evolving behind the scenes, look out for an individual post on this soon! We deeply appreciate all the support we have received in slowly but surely bringing this exciting vision to ground.
