Episode sneak peak……!
I’ve learnt so much from Indigenous Elder Uncle Dave Wandin. We discuss his deep connection to Country and his identity, as well as his passionate work teaching others how to care for the land. Uncle Dave is currently managing a farm just north of Melbourne.

In this episode, we dive into fascinating topics like mosaic burning and bush tucker—insights I found truly eye-opening. It's a great episode that you won’t want to miss. Be sure to tune in this Friday!
