  • Significant Roadside Area: Exploring the world through a child's eyes
    May 27 2024
    In this special bonus episode, host Kyla Brettle is guided by her two children on a dreamlike walk that unravels the history of a small patch of remnant bush on the edge of a highway near her home in Barkers Creek, designated as a 'Significant Roadside Area'. On the journey, they're joined by an ecologist, a landcare volunteer and a First Nations Elder, to explore a small crack in the fabric of the universe where the past, present and future collide. It's a beautiful meditation on appreciating the connections between people and place, and rediscovering the world around us.
