If you are seeking to learn about bushtucker
and natural medicines, we can tailor a programme to suit your

You can also learn this as part of our Nyungar
Know How programme.

 Right:
Munyuret (Red-Eye Wattle)
The seed pods were dried and ground into flour. By adding water,
the flour paste could be cooked and eaten as a damper. The Nyungar
knew that these seeds could not be eaten unless they were cooked.
They also got soap, sun screen, oil for the skin from this plant
