Welcome to Bakarindi Bush Foods online store. Some years ago we moved from Woolgoolga to follow our passion for native plants.This led us to the Back of Corindi Beach to a property that has been in our friends family for over 100 years. After a major clean up (still ongoing) we planted our first 3 Finger Limes along with other native fruit trees and some exotics.We now have 100's of Finger Lime trees- Riberries- along with a small patch of Lemon and Aniseed Myrtle and Rosella Flowers. The planting is ongoing with Davidson Plums both NSW and Queensland varieties added. The garlic and chillies used in our products are also grown on the property.Our home is situated on a small rise with views from the kitchen (where the creating occurs) over the trees to the ocean. We have always made homemade relishes- chutneys and jams- we now employ our daughter Jemah to carry the passion into the future.A decision was made to take the products both traditional and bush foods to the public through various markets and now our online store. We love giving tastings and explaining the benefits of eating native foods and how good they can taste.
