The gathering began with a beautiful women’s circle hosted by Sophie Palmer, who gently guided us to slow down, ground ourselves and set intentions together.

From there, we gathered around the table for an incredible menu by chef Jed Gerrard, inspired by JUCA’s recipes and thoughtfully redeveloped for an adult palate. Created using seasonal, locally sourced ingredients and served on locally made ceramic platters, every detail felt considered, nourishing and deeply connected to place, alongside beautiful pieces from female-founded La Casa Home and Keramika Ceramics woven throughout the setting.

JUCA brought nourishment. iamibu brought reverence and style for motherhood. THE INARRA brought storytelling and connection.

Together, it became more than a lunch. It was a moment of softness, reflection and community, with mothers gathered in conversation, babies in arms and the hinterland all around us.

The afternoon closed with thoughtfully curated gift bags featuring brands we genuinely love and align with, extending the feeling of care beyond the day itself. Each individual bag hand-embroidered by the founder Jesse's mother.
