Perth Bushfood Plants

Saturday 1st August 2026


Discover the rich tradition of native food plants with Steve McCabe from Switch Your Thinking.

Held at Byford Library, this 1.5-hour workshop explores how people have managed seasonal food resources in the Perth region for thousands of years. You’ll gain insight into local bushfood plants, their seasonal availability, and the cultural knowledge behind their use.

The session also highlights native edible plants that can be successfully grown in home gardens, offering a practical way to connect with local biodiversity while producing your own food.

A great opportunity for gardeners, sustainability enthusiasts, and anyone interested in Western Australia’s unique native food landscape.
