Learn your bush foods

So many people are fascinated by the number of plant species that are edible and used for medical and other purposes – but they don’t know which is which.

So here’s your chance to remedy that – and bring new, yet ancient, inspiration.

The next Bush Tucker Guided Walk is taking place at Noosa Botanic Gardens this Sunday 14 September.

Gubbi Gubbi Elder Lisa Powell will be inviting participants on a journey of discovery to identify bush tucker plants and divulge their special secrets.

Bookings are essential for this walk and can be made via trybooking.com

The price is $15 for non-members – or only $10 if you are a member of the Noosa Botanic Gardens Friends volunteer group. Yes, friends get benefits!

The walk is one hour long, starting at 9am and good walking shoes, water and a hat are recommended.

Noosa Botanic Gardens are located on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy CBD.
