💜💜💜 𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗦𝗨𝗣𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝘄𝗲𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘀, Team Jess 2.0, and the walk of solidarity this Sunday for the brain cancer community 💜💜💜

🥰 If you’re really lucky, you land in a family where your cousins are your first best friends. Beyond that, if you’ve got a cousin like Jess, you’ve hit the jackpot – she’s the brightest inspirer, greatest cheerleader, generously caring, understanding, fun, and supportive beautiful friend you could ever hope to have. There are none like Jess 🥰📸 Just look at that first photo – that’s my baby brother Jess is holding up so he doesn’t fall – she’s been the best since before we could walk.

🏃‍♀️Can we raise another thousand dollars (or thousands more) for 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗠 𝗝𝗘𝗦𝗦 𝟮.𝟬 in three days? 𝓨𝓮𝓼, 𝔂𝓮𝓼, 𝔂𝓮𝓼, 𝔀𝓮 𝓬𝓪𝓷!
If every fabulous FLACKSEED follower gave just $2 that'd be over $2K!!!

⌚️ It takes just a minute to help raise money for world-class brain cancer research and every donation, big or small, helps bring us one step closer to a cure 💜

Many people don't know brain cancer kills more children than any other disease in Australia. It also kills more people under 40 in Australia than any other cancer. Yet very little is known about brain cancer, its causes or how to treat it. Let's discover and do more now!

Every dollar truly makes a difference 💜💜💜

The FLACKSEED, The Flackyard , The FLACK Family - are and always have been proud supporters of The Arts and Artists. Our restaurant space Lake Leschenaultia is an ever-evolving gallery, even the tables guests dine at are a collective work of art.

Each day we set and dress our intimate restaurant we appreciate the talent of an emerging artist of the Perth Hills, Noongar & Jaru artist Olivia R Kalin art, whose artistry you will find on some of our restaurant tables. More of Olivia’s wonderful work can be found as part of Mundaring Hills Open Studios at Two Birds - behind the Post Office in Darlington from the 18-26th October.

If you are headed up this way to appreciate amazing Artists who open their studios and their hearts to visitors over the next two weekends, why not include some 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘆 while you are here - and book your table for a long lazy lunch at 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗬𝗔𝗥𝗗.

The Flackyard offers an immersive degustation dining experience championing local produce and awe-inspiring Australian native ingredients, that The Flack Family strive to source from First Nations owned and led businesses. While you dine you overlook Lake Leschenaultia and the enchanting natural art of the bush surrounds.

Or if it’s a lake side snack or graze that may suit you better… kiosk takes the same vision The Flack Family have with their restaurant and transform all the kiosk classics – coffee and chai, hot chips, ‘Ausage rolls, Super Spring Rolls, baked treats, beverages galore and more…
