“Nothing lights up my heart (and belly) more than native food. First Nations food is important to me because it connects me with my Country, my Culture and my ancestors.”

— Mindy Woods
Proud Bundjalung woman & Native Food Chef

Karkalla At Home

Food has a culture. A history. A story. It has relationships and identity.

As First Nations woman, nothing lights up Mindy’s heart (and belly) more than native food and she’ll always take the opportunity to speak about it, share knowledge about it, grow it, but most of all cook with it whenever she gets a chance. 

Karkalla At Home shares her love of food, her heritage and Culture and is a celebration of Australian native foods. It is more than a cook book. It is an invitation from her Elders and Bundjalung community to be part of the world’s oldest living civilisation.

Our history can be told through our food.
