Send us a text Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this episode will contain names of deceased persons.

I chat about why this is the case. Also speak about two ladies who were quoted to have a vast knowledge of plants, the environment, and their use...

Favourites of mine, in no particular order, and because our next real episode is on bushland gardens, I though...
Send us a text To a woman who didn't suffer fools gladly, she was a force to be reckoned with. I applaud her tenacity and flair for being outspoken in a world when it was hard to speak openly as a woman. But it was in a time when being an outspoken woman was frowned upon. And she did shack up with a man 25 years her senior while he was still married to another woman, with whom he had fathered seven children. However, if she'd been a man doing this at the time, would t...
