19.01.2022 We are very proud to have Cooee Cafe & @JalaJala Treats on board as a new member. Cooee Cafe & Catering is the only Indigenous café on the Mornington Peninsula. Owned by Sharon Brindley and managed by her daughter Shayla and her team of experienced hospitality staff, the café offers dine in, takeaway and catering six days a week. The word cooee originates from the Dharug language of the original inhabitants of the Sydney area. It means come here, and has now become widely used in Australia as a call over distances.

And in typical Kerry fashion she's not just helping improve outcomes for First Nations people across Australia in the bushfood and botanical space but wearing and promoting First Nation businesses. In this case Saretta Art & Design
