Australian native ingredients
Discover the Unique Richness of Australia's Native Ingredients
Australia is home to a diverse array of native ingredients that offer unparalleled richness in flavour, aroma, and health benefits. These plants have thrived on this ancient land for tens of thousands of years, nurtured by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose deep connection to country has safeguarded their knowledge for millennia.
At ETCH Sparkling, we actively listen, learn, and engage with First Nations people to honour and amplify their knowledge of native Australian ingredients. We are committed to preserving this cultural heritage and sharing it with the world.
To deepen our understanding, we actively engage with local First Nations organisations, communities, and events. At ETCH, we are proud members of the .First Nations Bushfood and Botanicals Alliance Australia (FNBBAA) and partner with Living Culture and Our Songlines. This way we are mentored and educated by inspirational and generous leaders.
In recent years, these extraordinary native food sources have garnered renewed interest across multiple sectors, including the food and beverage industry, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
This growing demand highlights the unique flavours and wellbeing benefits that Australian native ingredients provide to consumers both locally and internationally. We are excited to be part of this movement, celebrating these ingredients and the incredible stories behind them.
On this page, we invite you to explore a curated selection of native Australian fruits and herbs. Let us take you on a journey of flavour and tradition, as we continue to learn and share the wisdom of First Nations custodians of this land.
