First Nations
Welcome & Acknowledgement to Country
For many First Nations Australians people in Australia, land is much more than soil, rocks or minerals. It’s a living environment that sustains, and is sustained by, people and culture. Before colonisation, the reciprocal relationship between people and the land underpinned all other aspects of life for First Nations Australians people. Today, this relationship with the land and their ancestors remains fundamental to the identity and way of life of many First Nations Australians people.
Bush Tucker Ingredients
Australian Native Produce (Bush Tucker) is any food native to Australia. First Nations Australians used the environment around them for centuries and have an interdependent relationship with the land and lived off the native flora and fauna for many generations. They enjoyed a diet that was high in protein, fibre and nutrients while being low in sugars.
The Meaning of Dreamtime
According to First Nations Australians belief, all life as it is today - Human, Animal, Bird and Fish is part of one vast unchanging network of relationships which can be traced to the great spirit ancestors of the Dreamtime.
