Saxon and Deja Ryan are the owners of Gibberagong, a property situated in Mullumbimby Creek, west of Mullumbimby, New South Wales. The property adjoins Mount Jerusalem National Park and is situated closeby to a range of other natural protected areas such as Nightcap National Park, Goonengerry National Park, Snows Gully National Reserve and Whian Whian Conservation Park. The property is partially developed former rural land with significant remnant vegetation and is currently used for wildlife rehabilitation and recreation and undergoing complete restoration to an endemic landscape. The property owners are also signing up as members for Land for Wildlife, and in joining the Wildlife Land Trust aim to establish their property as a sanctuary, linking with a few neighbouring properties.
Gibberagong spans 21 hectares. The property features native flora species such as ecotones of Eucalypt Woodland grading from mature Tallow wood, Blackbutt areas to Subtropical Rainforest. Owners Saxon and Deja purchased the property in January in 2025 with a large amount of weed removal including areas of Camphor regrowth and planting native endemic shrubs, trees and vegetation species currently underway to restore the property to a wildlife and vegetation haven.
