Perth’s Bushfood Plants

Humans have managed seasonal food resources in this part of the world for a very long time. Many bushfood plants grow in the Perth region, and an understanding of their seasonality and management history adds further interest. This workshop will deliver a snapshot of the native food resources of Perth and focus on those that can be grown in private gardens.
Presented by Switch Your Thinking in partnership with the City of Canning.

He has decades of experience managing bushland for local governments, has worked in specialist nurseries and as a Dieback Interpreter. For ten years, he travelled WA with Beyond Gardens, a team of garden sustainability advisors. Steve is the Program Manager for Perth NRM’s “ReWild Perth”.
