20 October 2012 – Indigenous Plant Use

Posted on 1 October, 2012 by Connecting Country

Dr. Beth Gott of Monash University will share her research findings in a special presentation about the indigenous cultures that have managed this land for thousands of generations. This is an opportunity to learn about the plants indigenous people used and how they used them, from food and medicine to ornaments and glue.

The evening will be held at the Baynton Hall, Baynton, and is hosted by the Baynton Sidonia Landcare Group. All are welcome to a BBQ at 6.30 pm which will be followed by the presentation which starts at 7.30 pm. Bookings are essential with RSVP’s required by Wednesday 17 October. Please note any special dietary requirements at the time of booking.

This event is presented by the Baynton Sidonia Landcare Group with financial assistance from the North Central Catchment Management Authority and the Commonwealth Government Bushfire Recovery fund.
