Pacific Palms on the NSW Mid North Coast, is an area of diverse natural beauty and ecology which has become a sought after home and holiday destination. From the lakes to the beaches and the national parks, we have a valuable resource around us which needs to be responsibly managed and maintained to allow for long term community use, passive recreation and peak tourism.
You are invited to come and join us in a celebration of our community and the environment with a weekend of activities, information, and practical demonstrations of responsible building design, construction, land use management, permaculture, complimentary therapies and passive recreation opportunities in our area.
As a not for profit event we rely on the support of our sponsors and the local community every year - Thank You!
