At the Table: Bushfood and Botanicals Conference 2023

At the Bushfood and Botanicals Conference, you’ll have the opportunity to meet and learn from the leading people in the industry.

Be a part of the first Australian bushfoods and botanicals conference led by Indigenous people. Its aim is to bring together Indigenous harvesters, Indigenous growers, and Indigenous bushfoods businesspeople with non-Indigenous allies on the red dirt in the centre of the nation. The aim is to forge a pathway together to encourage the sustainable development of the industry whilst maintaining the inseparable relationship between the products themselves and their cultural traditions.

This two-day meeting will bring together Indigenous people involved in bushfoods and botanicals from across the nation alongside academics, legal professionals, cooks, chefs, and people working in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals and is open to the general public. Bushfoods will be available for tasting and will be highlighted at a special fundraiser dinner under the stars with chefs from every state and territory cooking a course at the Dining With the Stars dinner.
