Fred Fetherston lives at Wootton on Worimi land on the NSW mid north coast with inherited interest and curiosity for medicinal plants from his pharmacist father.  Fred and Sue both grew up bushwalking and growing native plants with their families and friends and continue to enjoy learning and sharing these passions. They received funding to assist with planting and growing 12ha of forest, that includes plants and fungi to provide future resources for people whilst improving water quality, erosion, habitat and biodiversity.
