E06 The One on a Log
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.

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.
