If bush supermarkets don’t have shelves, where does everything go?

Wardandi Bibbulmun Elder Aunty Dale Tilbrook, talks native tubers like youlk and warrine, and dispels a few myths about food production and farming. When we think of agriculture we tend to envisage large-scale wheat or dairy farms. But farms come in many shapes and sizes. These lessons help students explore some of the assumptions we make about how food was and is grown in this country, whilst role-modelling positive behaviours around trying new ingredients and asking valuable questions.
