COUNRTY

At GROUNDed, we celebrate the natural beauty and cultural richness of the Dookie Quarry area. This land holds deep significance to the traditional custodians, the Yorta Yorta people, who have nurtured and cared for it for thousands of years.

We acknowledge that the sovereignty of the Yorta Yorta people was never ceded, and we recognize the enduring connections they have to this land. As we gather for this festival, we invite everyone to appreciate the privilege of being on this sacred ground.

Together, let’s foster a spirit of respect and community, honoring the stories and traditions that enrich this place. By appreciating the cultural significance of the Dookie area, we can all contribute to preserving its beauty for future generations.
