#SouthAustralia - #PointPearce #FirstNations #CultureGarden
"#LandcareAustralia is proud to partner with #PointPearceAboriginalCorporation in establishing a First Nations community-led conservation and education project. Located in South #Australia’s Point Pearce in the #WardangIsland #IndigenousProtectedArea (IPA), the project is led by the #TraditionalOwners, the #Narungga people, and aims to support #Indigenous youth to learn about their Cultural heritage and knowledge that will lead to career and leadership pathways in #EnvironmentalConservation.
At the heart of this initiative is the Point Pearce First Nations Culture Garden, a space where #Elders, #FirstNationsRangers, and #IndigenousYouth come together to bridge and transfer #CulturalKnowledge. Designed as a hands-on learning environment, it will inspire young people to explore environmental conservation, deepen their appreciation for the natural world and discover career pathways that utilise Cultural knowledge.
The Culture Garden will feature a #medicinal and #ceremonial plant area, #NativeBushFoods, water features to attract #wildlife, #SensoryGarden, and dedicated spaces for learning and Cultural practice. With a #seedling #propagation zone, a #NativeSeed cleaning station, a fruit and nut #orchard, and interpretive walking trail. More than just a garden, it serves as a ‘cultural learning hub’—fostering pride and offering a comprehensive setting for community events, educational programs, and vocational training opportunities. With funding from #OneTreePlanted, the tree planting will also help #restore #NativeVegetation and improve habitat for threatened species including the Southern Hairy-nosed #Wombat.
Aligned with the South Australian Department for Education’s Aboriginal Education Strategy, the project aims to inspire engagement, Cultural pride, and environmental responsibility among First Nations students. It focuses on educational outcomes and how Cultural activities can play in enhancing social and academic competence among First Nations students."

#Australia - NATIVE NUTS FOR FOLIAGE AND FOOD
"The so called 'Hawaiian Nut', more accurately, the Queensland or macadamia nut, - is one of the most popular culinary nuts of the world. It is also the only native Australian food with widespread popularity, even though many people are still unaware that it is a native.
"Macadamia nuts are not, however, the only edible nut native to Australia. The nuts discussed below are all native and well worthwhile cultivating for their foliage and food. While #AustralianAborigines made extensive use of native produce, the white settlers and subsequent migrants have been reluctant to do so.
"The importation of exotic species in many instances has been at the expense of native species. Bunya-bunya pines, for example, have suffered enormous damage at the hands of loggers, because of their fine timber. Nuts from this pine, however, are among the best of the native nuts and deserve to be cultivated as much as macadamias.
"The use of native nuts, as with other native foods, need not be a replacement for exotic imported species, but an addition. We can still enjoy roasted almonds, as well as roasted bunya bunya nuts. Cultivating and growing native species ensures their survival and expansion. The macadamia nut, for example, is assured survival because it has become popular. Unfortunately, humans seem to respond when they exploit a species, rather than letting that species exist for its own sake. The great hope of conservation is not the preservation of species for human consumption and use, but the conservation of species per se.
"Native species are suited to native conditions, and it makes more sense to grow native species in their own habitat than to clear that habitat and try to adjust an imported species on that terrain. This, however, does not mean that any native species can be grown anywhere throughout Australia. Species that grow well in #TropicalRainforests, may do poorly (if at all) in cold temperate regions.
"Cultivating native species fits in well with #permaculture and any system of #SustainableAgriculture. Indeed, it should become an indispensable part of #sustainable agricultural practices.
"The fragile state of Australian forests cannot be overemphasised. Never pick fruit or seeds from national parks or any protected area. Native forests present us the opportunity to study the plants in their natural habitat, and as the cliche runs, 'Take only photographs and leave only footprints'."

#Australia - Native '#superfood' #grasses used to create flour, beer growing in popularity
By Fiona Broom, August 27, 2024
"Just three years ago, Chris Harris was using an old metal bed frame to shake out the tiny seeds that hide in native #KangarooGrass.
"The #AncientGrains can be roasted, brewed or ground into high-protein flour for baking.
" 'I spent a lot of time on my country — #Ngiyampaa country — with my pop, my dad, my mum and aunties and uncles,' Mr Harris said.
"Mr Harris has made flour out of #WattleSeed, as well as #MitchellGrass, #ButtonGrass and #KangarooGrass.
"He has sent native flours and seeds to kitchens across the country for the past two-and-a-half years but said he was looking at ways to expand his operations.
From builder to bush foods"Mr Harris is the farm manager at #BlackDuckFoods, an #Aboriginal social enterprise at #Mallacoota on Victoria's far eastern border with New South Wales.
"The farm, named #Yumburra — the Yuin word for the black duck native to the Mallacoota region — was set up by award-winning author Bruce Pascoe, whose book Dark Emu shone a spotlight on the lost history of #AboriginalFood systems.
"Mr Harris was a plasterer with an Aboriginal construction company when first visited the property about four years ago.
"But he said after discussing bush foods with Mr Pascoe, he realised his future would be as a farmer and native foods educator.
" 'I'd been talking a lot to him about the lilies, the murnong, and the grains and he'd seen a real interest that I had in the native food space,' Mr Harris said.
"In the past few years, the small team has grown its knowledge of the ancient grains at their former beef farm on the banks of the Wallagaraugh River.
"They have encouraged the return of the #NativeGrasses, wattles and #tubers that produce the nutritious ingredients that foodies across the country are learning to love."

#Australian #WitchettyGrub Recipe
April 28, 2023
"A witchetty grub is the larva of the witchetty bush cricket, considered a delicacy by some Indigenous Australians. It is high in protein and is usually eaten either raw or cooked. The raw grubs have a nutty flavor, while the cooked grubs taste like scrambled eggs [I think they taste a bit like scallops].
"The traditional way of cooking witchetty grubs is to roast them on hot coals, although they can also be boiled or fried. Witchetty grubs are still consumed by Indigenous communities in Australia today, and are sometimes served as a novelty dish in restaurants or available for purchase in specialty food stores.
Origin & Cultural Significance
"Witchetty grubs have been a staple food source for #IndigenousAustralians for thousands of years. The witchetty bush cricket is found in arid regions of Australia, and its larvae are an important food source for many Indigenous communities. The grubs are high in protein and provide a valuable source of nutrition in an environment where food can be scarce.
"In Indigenous culture, the witchetty grub holds great cultural significance and is considered a sacred food source. The grubs are often gathered by women and children and are a crucial part of many traditional hunting and gathering practices. The grubs are also an important part of Indigenous storytelling and cultural practices, and have been passed down from generation to generation as a symbol of cultural heritage and tradition.
"Today, witchetty grubs continue to be an important part of Indigenous culture, and are sometimes served as a novelty dish in restaurants or available for purchase in specialty food stores. However, the use of witchetty grubs as a food source has declined in recent years as Indigenous communities have been exposed to a wider range of foods and Western diets. Nevertheless, the witchetty grub remains an important symbol of Indigenous culture and heritage, and its cultural significance continues to be recognized and celebrated."

I'm looking forward to eating these berries. I'm growing a local native plant called Midyim, Austromyrtus dulcis. Beautiful. Raw, they taste a bit of parma violet! I bet there are some good antioxidants in here! #NativePlanting #Bushtucker #WildFood #Biodiversity #HomeGrown

#ThrowBackThursday to 1993, when I was backpacking in #Australia. This was taken during a "#BushTucker" excursion -- where I learned how to #forage for wild edibles (including #witchettygrubs) with a friend who was a member of the #Arrente peoples.
