Garl Garl Walbu, a Community-run Shelter in Western Australia

Derby is located in the dry tropics at the entrance to the Kimberley region in the north of WA. It is equidistant from Perth, Darwin & Denpasar. It is surrounded by tidal mudflats to the west, the Great Sandy Desert to the east and the rugged Kimberley to the north. It has an abundance of sunshine and water but very poor soil for growing the foods we are accustomed to eating.
