Eucalyptus Bark

In the Northern Territory, where the earth bleeds into distant horizons, eucalyptus trees stand as silent witnesses to the passing of seasons. Our people have used these trees for as long as our stories remember. The bark gives us material for our baskets & shelters. The leaves, when & boiled, make medicine for coughs and fevers. In the pre colonisation days, our ancestors would sleep beneath these trees during the hottest months.
