A lot of us know Bruce Pascoe as author of the award-winning Dark Emu, which introduced many Australians to the idea of Indigenous agriculture.

But, these days Bruce, together with his son Jack, is actually putting those ideas about land management into practice.

Bruce and Jack are co-founders of a social enterprise called Black Duck Foods, which works with the Indigenous community to establish traditional food growing and country management processes around the country.
