Kaartdijin Dandjoo – Common Cultural Uses of Plants – a cultural learning experience for everyone! 22 September 2026.
Kaartdijin Dandjoo is a free, hands-on learning experience across the six Noongar seasons. Developed with the support of the Harvey Aboriginal Corporation, this program provides an opportunity to learn, connect and explore Noongar culture and knowledge throughout the changing seasons.
This is the Djilba (growth season) program. Discover the Noongar names for plants and animals associated with Djilba, how they are traditionally used as food resources, and the important role they play in cultural practices including dance, song and storytelling.
Session 3: Common Cultural Uses of Plants
During Djilba, many plants across Country begin to bloom, bringing an abundance of flowers and new growth. Many of these plants have important cultural uses. This session will introduce key plants commonly found on Country and explore their cultural significance
