About this event

Join Muru Mittigar and our Dharug Traditional Owners/ Aboriginal Knowledge Holders for an engaging workshop where kids will learn about First Nations Traditions, the purpose and practice of a Yarning Circle, and how to create an Indigenous Edible Garden.

Through storytelling and hands-on activities, children will discover the cultural significance and traditional uses of native plants.

Join us at our beautiful Discovery Centre at Highforest by Mirvac. There is plenty of free parking available and the Cumberland State Forest is located right next door for a picnic or wander afterwards, so make a morning of it!
