Sharing Ancient Sea Country culture & food with you

In Tasmania, an island known by many names by many peoples – women are of the sea, men are of the land, and everyone comes from night sky country. Our women have governance of Sea Country, we care for it and provide Sea Country foods to nourish and bring happiness to families and communities.

Our ancestor women swam with woven baskets and abalone was levered off rocks with skillfully crafted tools and placed within for careful food handling. This same technique and great care still runs through our abalone harvesting process today, a beautiful product which is now available to you.

Choosing culturally fished abalone for your menu will connect this ancient Sea Country food and its culture, to you and your diners.

You have the power to help us create more sustainable and equitable food systems. Spark connection, innovation and transformation.

ROBERT ANDERS, ABALONE DIVER

40,000 years fishing for the love of a good feed

Where the land meets the sea, living midden sites line the coast of Tasmania. They are not simply collections of shells from a meal or cultural practice. They are also places of creation, burial, markers for travel, living floors and sacred places.

All Tasmanian Aboriginal Seafood suppliers are traditional owners and continuing custodians, keeping our ancient foods on Country and managing the fishery according to our age old traditions.
