Arrival on Country
Arrive between 8:45 and 9am. You'll be welcomed onto Bundjalung Country — the land that holds this morning. No rush. Take a breath. You're here.
Bring your peace
to the field. Plant it.
On the 8th of August 2026, across 150+ nodes worldwide, humanity will drop into stillness together. On Bundjalung Country in the Northern Rivers of NSW, SeedTree is hosting a node — a gathering in nature, a planting, and a moment of collective peace. You arrive carrying your peace. You leave having grounded it permanently in the earth.
One of 150+ nodes
across the planet
This gathering in Federal is one node in the largest peace activation ever attempted. On 8 August 2026, communities across more than 150 locations worldwide — from Bali to London, Boulder to Sri Lanka — will pause together in a single shared moment of collective intention. The wave begins in New Zealand and travels with the sun around the planet.
A 24-hour global livestream connects every node in real time. A six-week integration series follows. And on 21 September — the United Nations International Day of Peace — the movement culminates in a coordinated global crescendo.

How the morning unfolds
II
A Short Explainer
A brief introduction to the Global Peace Activation — what it is, what's happening simultaneously across the planet, and what we're about to do together.
III
Collective Stillness
The group drops into quiet together. A guided meditation — or simply shared silence for those who prefer it. Feel into what peace actually feels like in your body. The activation begins.
IV
Into the Field
Each person receives a native tree sapling and walks out onto the land to find where their tree wants to be planted. Plant it. A peace anchor, in the earth — permanent and growing.
V
A Fire to Break the Silence
The group reconvenes at the fire. The silence gently opens. Whatever you're ready to release — let the fire hold it alongside the intention you just planted.
VI
Stay & Share
Seasonal fruit and tea are shared. Stay as long as you like, in the warmth of what was planted together. The ceremony opens into conversation, connection, and community.
Optional Research Contribution
Measuring peace
Measuring peace
in the body
In partnership with In Truth, this event contributes to the largest collective consciousness dataset ever gathered — measuring what peace actually looks like in the human nervous system, across cultures, geographies, and communities.

Participation in the wearable tech research is entirely optional — in no way required to attend or take part. If you'd like to contribute your nervous system data to the In Truth peace frequency dataset using your own device (Oura Ring, Apple Watch, Garmin, or Whoop), you'll be guided through a simple registration prior to the event. This is an invitation only. The morning stands completely on its own.
The tree stays in the ground
long after the day is done.
