Healthy soil, food a pathway to good health

A dynamic weekend exploring human and environmental health is being held at Kin Kin on Saturday-Sunday, 24-25 May.

HEART Summit 2025 at Eastwell Farms is a fully-catered, two-day, one-night event dedicated to exploring the vital connections between human and environmental health.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Eastwell at Moran Group Rd Kin Kin, this summit is designed for wellness enthusiasts and those interested in sustainable, regenerative agriculture, eager to gain transformative insights and connect with thought leaders.

Eastwell Farms run regular open days but this is a ticketed conference event.

Eastwell’s Bryant Ussher said the feedback from the inaugural conference in 2024 was such that they “had to do it again.’’

It will be a similar format to last year’s HEART Summit with a focus on human health during the Saturday.

Then the focus switches to soil, plants, animals and healthy food on Sunday.

“It’s about connecting the two,’’ Bryant said. “That good health can come from healthy soil and in turn food that is good for you.’’

A dinner at Kin Kin Hall on Saturday night prepared by celebrity chef Matt Golinsky is a new addition to the schedule.

It will give better timing to have of an evening in which to understand the benefits of local and healthy foods from a celebrated identity who lives in the area.

Guest speaker will be Prof Ian Lowe AO, from Griffith University, who is also an adjunct professor at Sunshine Coast University and Flinders University.

Prof Lowe is was Australian Conservation Foundation president from 2004 to 2014, and is focused on environmental issues.

People can attend the dinner as a stand-alone event without having been part of the conference.

This summit is a must-attend event for anyone passionate about creating a healthier, more sustainable future.
