is an incorporated body, registered as “Caring for Fauna & Flora”, on land used exclusively for charitable purposes. also has public liability insurance for volunteer workers and any person who wants to learn more about fauna and flora. To release Wildlife back into the wild, it is important for us to have a safe and controlled place. As the land within the leased area hasn’t been burnt for severa

l years, some native animals and birds have come back to this area. Caring for the land (working with bio dynamics) and wildlife has been Barbara’s lifelong passion. Roy’s Retreat invites volunteers to visit during the dry season and educates them in wildlife rehabilitation and land care. We have been able to attract participants from “Rustic Pathways”, a student volunteer and adventure organisation, which come from Australia, North and South America and other countries. They have the opportunity to learn about life in the bush, including solar power and solar cooking, bush buildings, cane toads, weed eradication, fire prevention, and how to combat erosion. Antilopine kangaroos are the rarest of our big Australian species and are endangered. With a donation you will help to protect these wonderful animals.

🎙Episode 41. Chris Henggeler - The backpacker who bought a cattle station

Imagine this: building a pastoral lease from scratch.

I’m talking about walking onto a piece of land that has never been managed or developed – no fences, no man-made waters, no roads – nothing.

Sounds like something from the 1800’s right? A story of the settlers?

Well, this actually happened in the late 1980s, when Chris Henggeler purchased a new pastoral lease in the east Kimberley.

In this episode we find out how a Swiss backpacker ended up purchasing an Austrlalian cattle station, why there’s still no road access to Kachana over 30 years later, and about one mans mission to bring regenerative agriculture to the Kimberley.
