We are sisters, Julia and Anastasia Vanderbyl. A few years ago, we began a journey to live a life in perfect harmony with nature. A life of caring for animals, growing fruit, planting trees, gardening, cooking, creating, building and learning to live with the land.
In this time, nature has taught us more than we could have ever imagined.
Our environmental films document the landscape, the lessons we’ve learnt and our work as regenerative farmers here on Bundjalung Country.
We live on the land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal People of the Bundjalung Nation. We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Country we live on and recognise their continuing connection to the land and waters. We thank them for protecting this rainforest and its ecosystems since time immemorial.

So much connection in practice, not just talk about it. They are living it, so a nice mindset.
The videos give a very positive image of life in a real and relaxing world. The truth is that it is always good to return to nature and enjoy every moment of life, enjoy it to the fullest. No to wars, no to global hypocrisy.
Vinegar removes rust as well. I found a pair of sheers buried in my garden. They were a clump of rust. I submerged them in Vinegar and they came out still sharp
Good morieng thenkyuo soumatch olevieuo ❤
“The seeds of the future are at our feet.” Well-spoken! I just adore these videos. I love watching you interacting with these precious animals and giving back to the earth. You are truly making an impact that will outlive you both! Thank you for everything you do and for sharing your journey! What an inspiration! ….and I could watch these little ducks eating berries all day! 🥰💜🌙

Do they have a car that is a gas guzzler? How do they get to town?
You’re the best, you always teach me always love nature and what’s around you and never be on electronics every day and every second❤❤❤ thank you very much for supporting me
Hello Anastasia. I love the videos you, Mom, and Julia make. I look forward to them every Sunday. I might be able to help you with your tiny sewing machine problems. Since I am very mechanically inclined with a shop of my own, here are a couple possible solutions. Living in the middle Atlantic portion of the United States, we can get some brutal heat and humidity in the late spring through September, and yes, humidity it a problem here, too. Your Needles: 1. Try doing a Google search for the needle(s) you need. It may required a lot of searching, but that is one place to start. Also in your Google search, try to see it the manufacturer of the machine is still in business. Though it is an old machine, you never know if the company is still in operation or whether they can refer you to some place that has parts. 2. A more drastic method: Since you tried to get one of your needles into your machine, if the length is the only problem,, take a pair of wire cutters, cut/snap off a little bit of the top of the needle at a time to make it fit. Only do this if there is a screw to hold the needle in place. The Tension Problem-Lost screw: 1. Anastasia, I believe what you are looking for is a NUT, not a screw or a bolt to push the spring up or down. 2. You will have to see if in your collection of stuff, your can find the nut, and if it looks like it is going to fit, you absolutely must look a threads on the tension post (lack of a better term I can come up with) and the inside of the nut to see if the threads are either fine or course threads. 3. Course nuts/bolts are called Stove nuts and bolts. However, if the threads are fine, it is a Machine screw or Machine nut. Rust Issues: 1. WD40 will not solve the rust issue alone. For the outside of the case, you can use WD40 with extra fine sand paper. If you can get it, purchase Emery cloth as it will not fall apart (180, 220, 280, on up for the grit). (It is a cloth with imbedded grit material.) 2. For your internal parts that are rusting, I would suggest the same as in number one above, or use fine or extra fine steel wool (NO Soap Pads) with WD40.. Try to get as many of the internal parts out of the sewing machine, and at the least, place some machine oil on them. Do not use motor oil, as it is too thick. 3. Wipe off all of the grit and dirt from the parts and then place some oil on the parts, put back together and see it that solves the problem. 4. Since you live in the rain forest, you are going to have to protect the machine from wetness. Try to find a large plastic storage container that has a locking or sealing top. You will have less aggravation later, and you will not have to do much maintenance in the future. And of course, do not use the mini-sewing machine on rainy or humid days. You would be asking for trouble. 5. Finally, once you have removed the rust on the outside casing, wipe everything clean and free of any oily residue, and paint it. If available, get Rustoleum primer or similar, and Rustoleum Exterior high gloss enamel paint. You may have to use 2 coats of each to keep the rust down. Remember to very light sand between coats to get the finish smooth. Anastasia, if you try any of these things and they are successful, please leave a reply. I would really like to hear it on video or to read it in a posting., especially if you have any success. Best wishes!
A very beautiful life, very harmonious, one with nature, away from the noise of vehicles, only the natural sounds of the wind and trees, water, rivers and animals around❤❤❤
The old tablecloth became a sublime creation. Well done!
Watching your childlike selves plant that little tree gave me tremendous joy, thank you so much for sharing the beautiful important work of yours🌿 inspired now to go off and film my own nature video!🌺 I hope you all have a lovely day

Always so nice to see you ladies enjoying the outdoors. And must say love to see the country side and how nice it is.
Anastasia, the sewing machine restorer. I think I remember you adding the electric motor to your 'Singer', I like how you both do not mind getting your hands dirty in the garden. It shows you have the correct climate, those berries were large. Love to you all, from Mike. ❤❤❤
What an amazing talent at giving things new life! Bravo Anastasia 👏👏
Hi Anastasia and Julia I'm from Philippines and I'm 1 of your thousands followers before, and I'm happy to watch both of you back.. From Philippines with LOVE 💝💝💝

You know who also is amazing? Your average common American Worker who does not complain and is law abiding.
Watching you see, makes me remember the days that mom created the clothes she made.
Your family and love of the land is truly admirable. As old as I am and as progressive I think I am, when I watch your videos I strive to do much more in my own way. Plant a tree for the future. Make the footprint you leave do no harm and benefit the coming generations.

How much cold hard cash did these girls inherit to live like this? Do both of them own a car?
A very beautiful life, how beautiful nature is
Regenerative living during springtime in Paradise is absolutely amazing!! The bounty is amazing!!
Try soaking rusty parts in vinegar, its slow but I have removed far more rust than on your machine. I love your life and look forward to videos with joy. Cannot wait for your book. Thankyou so much for sharing your wealth with us.
Y'all portray how lovely it is ,not really how hard it is to live off the land I love y'all in your endeavors,great videos
Nice to see girls, im excited to read your books and i hope you all have a lovely day
ONE , Big Family...... True Humans ...... Much Love From Tweed
Anastasia, try using some fine steel wool to remove the rust from your miniature sewing machine. The refurbished top you created is beautiful and fits you well. Always a pleasure seeing the great work you both do.❤❤

I was thinking of steel wool as well but was too afraid of it scuffing the metal\finish. It probably depends on how fine of steel wool she uses.
Ah, I just moved my completed compost also. I took the guinea grass and copper top weed and kitchen scraps to make it. Now it forms a herb garden beneath the frangipani and a ghost gum that I rescued from a neighbour's overzealous lawn mowing. The curl grubs made a feast for currawongs and curlews , who keep now returning to the shadow of the compost circle, in the hope of more. I am still waiting on mulberries as the tree recovers from termites and I am watching my mangos grow slowly. 🌸
I adore your channel. It is pleasing to my soul.
Always Beautiful Awesome, Mesmerizing 🌹🌹❤️🦋✨🌺
Great video. Very peaceful. Take care and be safe.
I admire Anastasia's mechanical abilities in getting the old sewing machines working, and I love the creativity of making her own beautiful clothes using worn or discarded items. And having your own aesthetic that comes from within is so much better than copying "trends."

Mother The Mountain Farm is truly the only reason I'm keeping KZread at this period of My life time, I have no other social media, I have no TV, I have no mobile phone/device, I do have a CD player and a love for my record player for music, This is my choice, This makes the world for Me a much better place. If I had to wish it would be to live and grow in a place such as you are. Thank You Julia, Anastasia for just being. Much Love Aj x 💞
I see 2 very old souls that are angels, you have come back to earth to balance good, thank you
Beautiful and love❤❤❤
Using rust converter from Bunnings will definitely help to remove rust and prime the metal for paint. Installing a light in the bolt room will also help
You two girls are an inspiration to future generations!!!. Lovin'it and you girls from Texas 💕.
Its very inspiring to live with nature and enjoying with all the aspects of nature playing with animals and birds ,make food ❤
You living the way God intended for us to live. God bless you!
I love the older sewing machine you use sometimes.
Hi ya! FYI I preordered your book here in En Zud through Paper Plus no worries. Can't wait to see all the lovely photos and read it. Well done all of you!
"Julia and Nature: an unbeatable harmony, a source of eternal inspiration."🌹🌻🌺🌼🌷💮🌸 🥰
Those mulberries looks very good!
If you use vinegar, be sure to wash it off completely with water and them neutralize with baking soda, or it may rust out the whole thing. Then apply oil. If well oiled, humidity won't be a problem. Have a friend in muggy Florida who lived in a house with no air conditioning for 40 years and they had manual treadle sewing machines in use through the year. You might be able to adapt regular manual sewing needles designed for leather with a thread hole at the tip. Fantastic videos, always a joy to watch! Keep up the kindness and wonder!
Your accomplishments and content bring feelings of peace, serenity and the joys of simplicity . It s wonderful to see . I love the old fashioned ways. Ty. Ps Rust Oleum works well but be careful with chemicals ! You can also use white vinegar or ketchup by first spraying soapy water on them to clean the grease of then submerging the rusted metal parts in either for 4-6 hours (look for the bubbles coming off the parts to see it working ) then remove the parts and wipe them re- submerge them in baking soda and water to neutralize the acids then remove and wipe clean and spray lightly with grease and wipe regularly to prevent re-rusting . White lithium grease is great to keep parts moving well too besides WD-40 🙂
Thanks alot that give us lots of happiness when watching your videos
A significant statement: "... can fashion ever be sustainable?" ... "I think that the answer is no, because fashion only exists under capitalism." Could not agree more. Many of our problems as a civilization are created by the fact that our actions and our goals are more often than not dictated by an induced obsession with making a profit. To give an example everyone is familiar with today, we could have had access to free, non-polluting, inexhaustible energy if Nikola Tesla would have built his tower in Long Island, New York. When the investors realized that free energy meant no profit, they stopped funding the project, and Tesla was forced to abandon it. Money, capital-ism, is the root of the mentality that everything goes only if it generates a profit. That is very detrimental to our communities and to Mother Nature, and we are not where we could have been had we taken a different path. The videos put together by these wonderful humans convey a deeper message to our civilization. It is for us to uncover it and then live our lives according to that.
Amazing! It's so simple right from foods, clothes and life style but the most of all is the calmness and easeness to navigate life. You got some clues of why there's slowness and fastness out there but the reason is.. Enjoy your times as seasons comes can't you be mechanic sometimes oops or the MANUAL it gives a guide how you dismantle you might assemble as well good work!
About rust removal, if no one has suggested it, white distilled vinegar works, just soak the rusty parts in the vinegar, usually overnight and then some steel wool to wipe it down with.
Another wonderful video ❤ hugs from France
Vinegar is a fantastic natural rust remover
Very beautiful video😃✌🏻nature at its finest🌷🕊️🌷
Really Anastasia, you are a very hardworking girl, I love you with all my heart.

Great to see a new video and it is very Beautiful there in Australia especially where you live at and great to see the beautiful countryside and scenery as well you two, your family, friends and the very cute animals, have a very beautiful week and take care Thank You very much.❤❤🇭🇲🦮🐑🐐🦆🐓🇭🇲❤❤
This is more beautiful than what is natural
Always a pleasure to connect with your videos.
Hello Anastasia and Julia. Thanks for another episode of your life in you own 'Garden of Eden'. I love the fact you keep finding suitable materials for making your own clothes. The new top you have just made is exquisite and looks very attractive on you, Anastasia. As for your new little Sewing Machine... very fine 'Wet & Dry' paper with some WD-40 should do the job. Just don't rub too hard on the white metal parts - especially if they are nickel or chrome plated - and work in small circles. Much Love. Russ. UK. xx
Your true inspiration to me , my dream is to have a homestead
I polish off rust, by hand, with 4xxxx steel wool. You could wrap it around a small screw driver to reach tiny spaces and corners in the metal. I finish by using an air compressor blow gun to clear the tiny particles from polishing. In this country we call the outside threaded portion of a fastener a 'bolt' and the inside threaded fastener a 'nut'. Using a 'washer' properly sized under the small nut to cover the diameter of the spring will compress it more efficiently than the nut by itself as you turn the nut and contact the spring. I admire your determination and vision for the tiny machine.
just one word; FANTASTIC ....
Absolute peace 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks!
Fantastic new video keep up the fantastic work & in the Rain forest
That new top looks amazing 👏 music beautiful as always, I always feel peaceful arfter watching ❤
I would love to live there so beautiful and peaceful
Beautiful nature video
ANASTASIA that new top is gorgeous ❤ You are very talented and I absolutely love that you recycle old table clothes ✌🏼💚💡
A piece of heaven on earth. Love the energy and the ideology.

Thank you for wonderful video!!! ☀️🌻🍓🦄
I ❤ Julia and Anastasia
Put the rusty metal parts in double strength vinegar. Make sure they are completly covered. May take a few days. Keep checking and use a small hard bristle brush to scrub off rust. Then polish.
hermosas gracias
Bellissimo posto💚🌄💚
Beautiful girls, beautiful nature... very pleasant place to live....
Very beautiful 😊👍
If you can find one of the child sewing machines, the needle from a may work in your little machine. You might be able to use other parts from it.
Good video 😊
I think you’re struggling to find a bolt for your machine because it already has one. I think it’s a nut you need 😃 and WD40 probably isn’t the best thing to use; it isn’t a lubricant and was developed for the American space program, to stop things freezing up at launch. You need a decent lubricant. Really enjoy your channel btw. Thanks.
It is divine how they live and perceive life and nature. I'm a guy and I'm 26, I would like to live with her in harmony and in harmony with nature. It reminds me of Eden, maybe Adam and Eve used to live like this. We were bewitched by the thaw of winter, Exposing life is a wonderful moment. ❤️🌷
Anastasia, Try soaking the rusted parts in vinegar after sanding then lightly with steel wool to abrade the surface. Worth a try, but if successful, remember to oil again as a sealer. Good Luck
*_Hello Anastasia and Julia... you two always give charm and inspiration, you have quite a large area of land and you use it to plant fruit which is very useful for you... you two are really great... greetings from Indonesia_* 💯👌👍
Vinegar or lemon juice will take care of rust. Then oil or paint if you want to use.
Good Luck les filles
Your accomplishments and content bring feelings of peace and joy for simplicity. It’s wonderful to see it . Ty Ps you can use white vinegar or ketchup to clean and de-rust your sewing machine . Just spray and wipe soapy water to remove grease first then submerge in white vinegar or ketchup for 4-6 hours *look for the bubbles coming off the rusted parts to see it working then take the parts out wipe and re- submerge in baking soda and water to neutralize the acids then remove and wipe dry and use a spray grease on the parts to prevent re-rusting . ❤PPS don’t worry about snakes they are yummy .😂

I like this idea but I wonder if the ladies even have things like ketchup. The times I see them cook, they don't typically use things like condiments unless it is avocado they pick. It is possible they could have the white vinegar though.
Yes, Yes, Yes... regeneration is key. You may want to try "rust converter", some brands remove the rust and put a protective coating onto the metal.
hi mother........i love you
Beautiful
Thank you
Soak the rusty parts in a vinegar solution. There's plenty of information online.
Fascinating.
When I was a kid, my mom and grandma bought 100 pound sacks of hogfeed. They were able to get checked material, stripes and flowers. Mom had a treadle sewing machine and she made shirts for the boys and dresses for the girls. That way,, she didn't have to buy the material.
thumbs up for this beautiful Lady 👍......not only because of her views on nature and life; but also for her COURAGE to be as she is......and not to remove, what is grown by nature
Great ❤❤❤..you're always completing my day...ilove you girls,most especially to julia😊😊😊..regards Anastasia,,take care
