In the first episode of our podcast Conversations on Country, proud Worimi Elders Aunty Lyn and Aunty Janice share stories from growing up on the Mid North Coast of NSW, before their community was uprooted.

We had a good life. It was all about caring & sharing. We all had fruit trees, vegetable gardens, some of the men did the fishing... and it was all shared out.
