Seed & Sprout: A Gift From Country

Tuesday 8 July from 8am | Level 1 Lobby

Begin your day with a thoughtful connection to Country through native ingredient tastings and cultural learning. Experience the flavours of traditional bush foods while discovering their cultural significance and contemporary applications.

Each participant receives a native plant seedling to take home – your own living connection to the wisdom of Country that you can nurture and grow. This experience celebrates the ongoing relationship between people and plants that has sustained communities for generations.

A delicious and inspiring way to start your morning while connecting taste with tradition and cultivating your own piece of Country.

Step into an immersive world of Indigenous culinary innovation. Our pop-up experience showcases the richness of native Australian ingredients through guided tastings, cultural education, and contemporary applications.
