Collecting bush lollies and cooking tail
$1,200.00
All the families love to go on a bush picnic. The children and ladies pile into the Troopy with a billy for bush tea and malu wipu (kangaroo tail). The ladies tell stories whilst cooking the tail for lunch. The children run around, climbing trees looking for tjau, an edible resin found in the ironwood. The children collect the resin that is ground and mixed with water to make a delicious honey bush lolly that you suck.
