Description

For thousands of years, ‘bushfood’ plants have been an integral part of our indigenous people’s staple diet and culture. Today these native foods are being ‘rediscovered’ by contemporary Australians and appreciated for the unique flavours they offer us.
Join Veronica from Witjuti Grub Bushfood Nursery as she shares the knowledge and experiences, gained over 23 years involvement with Native food plants, on how to create a Bushfood garden so you can enjoy the ‘Wild Taste of the Rainforest’ in your own backyard.

About the presenter

Veronica has been a Sunshine Coast based bushfood specialist for 23 years. She holds demonstrations, talks and workshops from both her home at the Witjuti Grub Bushfood Nursery in the Obi Obi Valley to a wide variety of venues and gardens throughout S.E. Qld.
Her journey has been fuelled by a passion for Australian native plants and by her delight at seeing bushfoods growing in backyards and public spaces for everyone to share and also be delighted by.
