Lemon Myrtle
Lemon Myrtle might just be one of the best known Australian Native plants and for good reason.
The Lemon Myrtle is a rainforest tree. Not just a perfect cooking addition, the leaves are also the purest source of natural citral (90-98%) making lemon myrtle a powerful essential oil. It has a refreshing clean citrus aroma and taste and goes in just about everything. Dubbed the ‘Queen of the Herbs’ she is more lemony than a lemon will ever be.
Our Lemony Myrtle comes

Warndu means good in the Adnyamathanha language. Our mission is to REGENERATE culture, community, tradition, health and our soils. Every product we make includes one or more Australian Native ingredients.
Our products are all made in Australia from 100% locally sourced, seasonal and wild harvested produce.
To maintain Warndu taste we keep smaller quantities on hand of our Australian Natives, it takes us a little while to dry, roast or grind them to make. We aim to send all orders within ten days of receiving them.
