About
The Australian Bushfood Education Centre is dedicated to helping people learn about the health and wellness benefits of Australian native plants and foods (commonly known as Bushfoods). We provide a unique learning experience combining traditional knowledge, culture, and modern-day science to create an enjoyable and informative journey into Australian native plants.
We believe that without a healthy Country, we cannot have healthy people. With this in mind, we aim to provide a range of courses to help people learn about and reconnect with the ancient wisdom of Australian Aboriginal cultures while nurturing Country in a sustainable way, for now, and future generations.
Our workshops and online courses are designed to teach participants about these unique plants and foods' powerful nutrition, healing, and spiritual benefits. We also provide cultural consulting and professional support for those looking to incorporate native plants and foods into their diets and lifestyles.
​
Our team of experts, including collaborating organisations and Universities, are passionate about caring for the health of people, connecting people to Country, and preserving culture.
We demonstrate our commitment to education, health, and culture through courses that empower individuals and communities to adopt preventative health strategies, contribute to research on native foods and plant medicines, and support sustainable systems that use local native plants and foods in a culturally safe way.
​
The Australian Bushfood Education Centre is an inspiring educational service that will teach you lifelong skills that can be incorporated every day.

We would like to acknowledge and pay our respects to the traditional custodians of the land on which we live, work, and play. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging and recognise that these lands have always been places of traditional healing, food and medicine, and this plays a role in shaping future health.
