Planning & growing an edible suburban bush tucker garden.greenspun.com : LUSENET : David's Organic Forum : One Thread |
We are seeking information for our Sunshine Coast area to help us plan and grow an edible garden of Australian native plants. We live on a relitively small suburban block. Nevertheless, we are keen to persue our aim. We look forward to hearing from anybody who can help.

There are lots of edible native foods but not a lot that don't need processing. Lemon and aniseed myrtle, riberries, Davo Plums,etc. I think the local bushtucker group ARBIA have a website you could visit.There email is bushfood@bigfoot.com David.
