Bernadine Kemarre Johnson
Arrenrte Santa Teresa, east of Alice Springs,N.T. "When I go back home, out bush, that's when we walk in the quiet and talk to the old people and the young ones. We learn and we teach, about what the bush has for us, how to look after her and not take everything, to take a little from each spot. We gather bush plants and turn them into teas and rubs for wellness. It is a good time" |
