The IPHA holds regular field days across eastern Australia that include information sessions, demonstrations and more. Some examples include:

  • Essential oil distillation from native aromatic trees and shrubs.
  • Plant medicine and food bush walks.
  • Medicine-making from native plants.
  • Cooking with wild foods.
  • Permaculture with native plants.

Upcoming events

Our next event is a double-header –a Bush Fruit Field day PLUS a Cyanotype* Workshop – to be held on Sunday 3rd May and Monday 4th May (Labour Day holiday, Qld) at Maplefield in Queensland’s Sunshine Coast hinterland.

(* Cyanotype is a process of creating prints without a camera, using plants, found objects and sunlight.)

INVITATION: We are happy to promote other events related to using Indigenous Plants for health, so if you have a relevant upcoming event then contact us to get it listed here.
