    About your guest:

    Tahlia Mandie launched Kakadu Plum Co. in 2015, long before most Australians had even heard of the powerful native superfood, Kakadu plum. What started as a single product quickly grew into a thriving brand offering over 30 products, from bush teas and preserves to oils and homewares. Today, Kakadu Plum Co. stocks a range of over 1,200 products from other Australian and Indigenous businesses through its online store. Driven by a passion to celebrate Australian bush foods and honour Indigenous culture, Tahlia has built a platform that connects customers with the richness of Australia’s land and its people.
