Harvested and Supplied by Black Duck Foods: A Story of Tradition and Sustainability

At Bush to Bowl, we proudly introduce Mitchell and Button Grass, sourced directly from Black Duck Foods, a 100% Aboriginal-owned company committed to reshaping Australia's agricultural landscape. Our journey with Black Duck Foods is a testament to our resilience and wisdom, echoing the traditions of our ancestors who tended to these grains with care and reverence.

Why Native Grains?

Choosing to embrace native grains like Mitchell and Button Grass isn't just about innovation; it's about honoring centuries-old wisdom that has sustained Australia's lands for millennia. These grains, cherished by our old people, not only nourish our bodies but also nurture the land itself. By cultivating native grains, we reconnect with the land in a way that respects its rhythms and fosters its regeneration.

The Importance of Aboriginal Food Harvesting for Culture and Country Connection

For us, Aboriginal food harvesting isn't just a practical endeavor; it's a profound act of cultural preservation and connection to Country. Through practices passed down through generations, we uphold a sacred relationship with the land, nurturing it as it nurtures us. This bond isn't just historical; it's foundational to the very essence of our identity and wellbeing.

By embracing Aboriginal food harvesting, we reclaim not only traditional sustenance but also a sense of belonging and stewardship over the land. Aboriginal agricultural traditions offer a blueprint for sustainable living that harmonises human needs with environmental health.

At Bush to Bowl, we stand in solidarity with Aboriginal communities like Black Duck Foods, committed to revitalising Aboriginal foodways for a more sustainable, inclusive future. With Mitchell and Button Grass, we invite you to join us on a journey of cultural resurgence, ecological stewardship, and culinary delight.
