Wild Harvesting Native Lemongrass. Mayi Harvests Native Foods founder Patricia Torres harvests all her produce by hand. Our produce is collected with the seasons and in small batches to ensure the balance of our bush eco system.

This method is the traditional & a sustainable way of gathering food from the land. It involves long hours, hard work but very rewarding to have this land connection.

The next time you receive your beautiful native produce,

please take just a little moment to appreciate that what you are enjoying has grown organically in the remote bushland of the Kimberley, 

hand collected from the land by a small family business,

and shared with you.

RECIPE OF THE MONTH

Tasty Herbal Iced Teas

Skip the stale old tea bags—fresh herbs make delicious tea refreshers for the whole family.

Making Iced Tea Using Native Tea Blend.

To make a basic iced tea, heat one quart of water to nearly boiling and place in a glass jar. Add approximately 1/4 to 1/2 cup of dried Nalaja or Bila-Bil Native tea blends, and cover. The amount is pretty much totally dependent on the tea you’re using and your personal tastes. Steep for anywhere from 30 minutes to 4 hours—the longer the steep, the stronger the tea. Strain and put on ice, adding a little honey if desired. (Hot tea can be made the same way—just reheat after straining.)

To make teas with fruit, simply smash the fruits to a pulp and follow the same method as you would with leafy herbs. You can strain out the fruit or leave it in, though with something like rose hips, you’ll want to remove the seeds before you steep to avoid bitterness. You can always add honey, cinnamon or even vanilla to make your tea sweeter. Remember, we want these teas to appeal to even the youngest in our families, so they can develop a healthy relationship with native herbs as an alternative to the commercial teas. 

If you have an herb garden, be sure to experiment with mixing your herbs with your native wild tea blends (many of which are also herbs) to find that flavours you like the best.

Note:

•Native Tea blends can be purchased from our online native food shop.
