Mayi Harvests was established in 2006 as an Indigenous cooperative, to supply wild-harvested Kakadu Plum 'Gabiny' and other native fruits and seeds.
Mayi' is a word from the Djugun / Yawuru language group of the West Kimberley that means,
'plant foods derived from parts of plants, including seeds, fruits, nuts, breads, cakes.'

Our family has followed these traditional methods of collecting plants, fruits and seeds off the land for food, health and medicine for generations. Australian Native fruits are delicious and unique, packed full of essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Australian Native produce has been branded as a SUPERFOOD and is becoming increasingly common with beauty companies, health food business and many modern restaurants and have found favour with chefs of all levels.
