our story
Dreamtime Tuka was founded by Herb Smith who was born in Wellington New South Wales. He is a Wiradjuri man who is proud of the fact he is a direct descendant through his family bloodline to the original Aboriginal Inhabitants of the Wellington Valley. The Aboriginal stories passed down from elders to their children and grandchildren have become some of Herb’s fondest memories, sitting and exploring the many stories about the food so important to his grandfather and the generations before him. Herb remembers so well his grandfather always saying,
"Good Tucker and a full belly makes you sleep and have good dreams"
Therefore, when Herb was considering a name for his company, his grandfather's words rang out loudly in his memory and in respect to his grandfather, DREAMTIME TUKA was born.
Dreamtime Tuka is the next step to extend production of Australian Native Foods. The cultural value of bush food is vital to the passing on of cultural knowledge for the Australian community and for the future generations of our country.
The Linking of Aboriginal foods and culture to the average consumer increases their appreciation and understanding of a history that has lasted many centuries.
Dreamtime Tuka is a member of the Indigenous Chamber of Commerce and Supply Nation. These memberships have assisted our organisation in linking with a network of indigenous and corporate businesses, while adhering to the guidelines and deliverables for the organisations.
