Simon visits the Tucker Bush Nursery to know more about native edibles plants.

• Tucker Bush has transitioned into an Indigenous-led land organisation focused on native food knowledge and cultural connection.

• Two varieties stand out: the round baby pig face with crunchy, lightly salty edible leaves, and Karkalla, known for its stronger flavour and traditional medicinal uses similar to aloe vera.
