In a presentation and facilitated Q&A, Bruce Pascoe provided attendees with insight into Aboriginal Australian culture, knowledge of country, and his personal history. Topical discussion of Kangaroo Grass and other species enabled a illustrative discussion of spiritual connections between land, soil, and the act of nurturing nature as central to Aboriginal Australian culture.
Held on the day prior to the 2020 Wakool Agri-Innovation Forum, this event provided attendees with a sample of the innovative perspectives to come. For more information about the Wakool Agri-Innovation Program, please contact leigh.fletcher@wmlig.org or call 03 5453 1577. |
