Why we gather
Why we gather every two years
Every two years, Motherland brings our whole national community together in person. Real faces. Real hugs. Online friendships finally meeting in real life. One unforgettable weekend.
In March 2026, hundreds of rural women from every state and territory joined us in Toowoomba for our National Conference. There were incredible keynote speakers, real and raw panel sessions, hands-on workshops and our much-loved Gala dinner – but at the heart of it all was connection, belonging and supporting the mental health and wellbeing of rural mums.
Every part of the weekend is designed to send rural mums home feeling connected, supported and knowing one thing: you are not alone.
What happened in 2026
Two days of connection.
Leading voices in motherhood, mental health and rural life, on one stage.
From welcome drinks and morning breakout sessions to thoughtful touches throughout, mums were looked after across the entire conference.
Our signature celebratory night was incredible - 550+ people, incredible speakers and so much fun!
Online villages met in person. New friendships were formed and old ones strengthened.
