🌿🍽️ Discover the Unique Davidson Plum! 🍽️🌿

At Native Oz Bushfoods, we love bringing the incredible flavors of Australian native ingredients to your table. Today, we’re excited to share some fascinating facts about one of our favorites: the Davidson Plum.

What is a Davidson Plum?

The Davidson Plum (Davidsonia spp.) is a strikingly beautiful and nutritious fruit native to the rainforests of northern New South Wales and Queensland, Australia. There are three main species: Davidsonia jerseyana, Davidsonia johnsonii, and Davidsonia pruriens. Known for their deep, dark purple skin and vibrant red flesh, Davidson Plums are not only visually stunning but also pack a powerful punch of tart, tangy flavor. πŸ‡πŸŒŸ

Nutritional Powerhouse

β€’ Davidson Plums are a superfood, bursting with essential nutrients:
β€’ Vitamin C: These plums have a higher vitamin C content than oranges, making them excellent for boosting the immune system. 🍊πŸ’ͺ
β€’ Antioxidants: Rich in anthocyanins, the same powerful antioxidants found in blueberries, which help combat oxidative stress and reduce inflammation. πŸ«πŸ›‘οΈ
β€’ Dietary Fiber: Promotes healthy digestion and helps maintain a balanced diet. 🌾πŸ₯—
β€’ Potassium: Essential for heart health and maintaining proper muscle function. ❀️πŸ’ͺ
Culinary Uses
β€’ The tart, tangy flavour of Davidson Plums makes them incredibly versatile in the kitchen:
β€’ Jams and Preserves: Their intense flavour creates deliciously unique spreads. 🍯🍞
β€’ Sauces and Relishes: Perfect for adding a gourmet twist to meats, especially game and poultry. πŸ–πŸ—
β€’ Desserts: Ideal for pies, tarts, and sorbets, adding a burst of colour and flavour. πŸ₯§πŸ¨
β€’ Drinks: Make refreshing juices, cordials, and even cocktails with a distinctive native twist. 🍹

Pro Tip: Try marinating your lamb roast in our handcrafted Davidson Plum jam for a mouthwatering, gourmet twist that will impress your guests! Our Davidson Plum jam is also great for adding to that cheese board, offering a delightful contrast of flavors. πŸ‘πŸ΄πŸ§€

Cultural Significance

Davidson Plums have been used by Indigenous Australians for centuries, both as a food source and for their medicinal properties. Incorporating these native ingredients into your cooking not only brings unique flavours to your table but also supports the preservation and appreciation of Indigenous knowledge and traditions. πŸŒπŸ–€πŸ’›β€οΈ

Growing and Sustainability

Davidson Plums are typically grown in shaded, rainforest-like conditions. They are a great example of sustainable agriculture, as they can be cultivated in harmony with their natural environment. By supporting products made from Davidson Plums, you are helping to promote sustainable farming practices and the conservation of native species. 🌳🌿🌱

Discovering the Quandong: Australia's Native Peach πŸ‘

The Quandong, often referred to as the native peach, is a unique and versatile fruit indigenous to Australia. Known for its striking red color and tart flavor, the Quandong is not just a culinary delight but also a nutritional powerhouse.

A Rich History and Cultural Significance 🏺

For thousands of years, the Quandong has been a staple in the diet and culture of Aboriginal Australians. Traditionally, it was used for both its medicinal properties and as a food source. The fruit, seeds, and leaves of the Quandong have various uses, showcasing the resourcefulness and deep knowledge of native Australian plants by Aboriginal communities.

Nutritional Benefits πŸ’ͺ

Quandongs are packed with vitamins and minerals, making them a healthy addition to any diet. They are particularly rich in vitamin C, providing a natural boost to your immune system. Additionally, Quandongs contain antioxidants, iron, zinc, and magnesium, contributing to overall well-being.

Culinary Uses 🍽️

✨Jams and Sauces: Quandong jam is a favorite, offering a unique twist on traditional fruit preserves. Quandong sauce pairs beautifully with meats, especially game and poultry.

Growing Quandongs 🌳

Quandong trees are well-suited to the Australian climate, thriving in arid and semi-arid regions. They are relatively low-maintenance and drought-resistant, making them an excellent choice for sustainable farming. If you're interested in growing your own Quandong tree, be prepared for a bit of patience, as it can take several years for the trees to bear fruit. but remember they are hemi parasitic they need a host.

A Word About Gammon Lime

Today, we’re talking about the "Gammon Lime." What's Gammon, you ask? It’s a term that means talking Goona! And if you’re familiar with the lingo, you know exactly what Goona means.

Discovering the Australian Sunrise Lime

The Australian Sunrise Lime is a delightful hybrid of finger lime and cumquat, yielding a beautiful pear-shaped golden fruit. This fruit is known for its juicy and sharp flavor, with a sweet skin that makes it delicious to eat whole.

Buyer Beware: Know Your Native Limes

Buyer beware: while Sunrise limes were developed in Australia, they are not native to Australia. Don’t be fooled by misleading claims. Make sure you know what you're buying to avoid any disappointments.

Versatility and Ornamental Value

Not only is the Australian Sunrise Lime a tasty treat, but it also makes a fantastic ornamental plant for pots or garden plantings. It primarily fruits in winter, with small, sporadic crops available throughout the year, adding a touch of vibrancy to your garden no matter the season.

Developed by CSIRO
The Australian Sunrise Lime was developed by the CSIRO, showcasing the innovative spirit of Australian horticulture.

At Native Oz Bushfood, we are committed to using only native Australian limes in our products. Our limes are sourced exclusively from native varieties, such as Finger Limes and Desert Limes. To learn more about our range and commitment to authentic Australian bushfood, visit:

What an eventful couple of days! Native Oz Bushfoods had the Honor of attending the special summit a Melbourne Convention centre. Engaging with inspiring individuals, I highlighted our commitment to safeguarding the industry. Speaking about -tukka, a traceability App owned by to track the province of native foods from harvest to consumer. The enthusiastic interest from DAFF Ministers seeing the app come to life was a highlighted topic. As Indigenous leaders, it's crucial to steer the Bushfoods and Botanical Bus, guiding governmental bodies. Tracey serving as the CEO of Native Oz Bushfoods and a Co-Founding Director of Bushfoods & Botanical Indigenous Enterprise Co-op (BBIEC), not to mention Tracey's role as Deputy Chair of ANFAB the peak body in Australia for Native foods & Botanicals positions us strategically. With the right people in key roles, I am eager to propel these discussions into the near future. Bushfoods is for everyone to enjoy but mob needs to be involved in these discussions with government around native foods as it part of our culture.
