Before white settlement the Australian bush provided First Nations people with all the food, fibre and medicine needed to thrive in this unique country. Developed with assistance from Wurundjeri elder Uncle Ian Hunter, this workshop will introduce the gardener to some of the plants used by indigenous Australians and inspire gardeners to grow them in their gardens.

The workshop will focus on plants indigenous to the outer eastern area and also include some popular bush foods from other regions.

Topics covered in this webinar:

  • Aboriginal relationship with the landscape and plants
  • food plants
  • fibre plants
  • medicine plants
  • tips on how to grow these plants at home
  • question and answer time.

This Sustainable Gardening Australia webinar is presented by Yarra Ranges Gardens for Harvest Program.
