If you haven't watched the latest episode of don't miss it! After a long journey to Minong and learning the skills they need to thrive there, Alice Lyn, and the Color Out Here group take time to slow down, connect, and experience it together. At Huginnin Cove, they spend time connecting with one another, the land, and the culture that makes the Good Place so special.

"The Good Place" is more than a National Park; it’s a place to connect, learn, explore, be our authentic selves, and belong. It’s a Good Place for all. Watch with the link! https://youtu.be/9V6e8aqAYzE

After a long journey to Minong and learning the skills they need to thrive there, Alice Lyn and the Color Out Here group take time to slow down, connect, and experience it together. At Huginnin Cove, they spend time connecting with one another, the land, and the culture that makes the Good Place so special.

The group continues to learn what it means to be a good visitor, how we care for the land, respect its stories and culture, and help make sure others can experience it too. As they begin the hike back, they leave with new connections, memories, and a deeper appreciation for Minong.

"The Good Place" is more than a National Park; it’s a place to connect, learn, explore, be our authentic selves, and belong. It’s a Good Place for all. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/9V6e8aqAYzE
