At the beginning of every program, Delta provides a special Welcome to Country to jarjum mirr (children). She then takes them along the stunning Byron Creek located within Bangalow Parklands. This area has hundreds of native plant species, including a variety of bush tucker plants that are especially important to the Bundjalung Aboriginal community.

Bangalow Parklands is also home to some native wildlife, such as Binging the river turtle, Junbung the platypus, Gehr the cockatoo and Margil the water dragon. During the program, Delta shares traditional Dreaming stories that have been passed down from her ancestors and she teachers some Bundjalung language and about significant sites, natural medicine, tools, weapons and artefacts.
