Windgrove

Life on the Edge

Nestled among she-oaks on rugged cliffs overlooking wild seas in south-east Tasmania, Australia, Windgrove is a truly special place: a refuge for learning.

Purchased in 1991, Windgrove has been transformed by the planting of over 9,000 trees and with the creation of several large scale Earth Art installations.

At Windgrove — landscape mingles with art, myth and science.

At Windgrove — contemplation, conversation and creative engagement with Self, Society and Nature are always on the menu.
