Wild fruit is part of Australia’s rural community tradition. Local residents and travellers such as truck drivers all know the unofficial fruit routes across the state.
They know where to pluck the best apples and plums in summer and autumn.
People eat them fresh or make pies and cider; horse owners collect apples for their animals. This wild harvest has been going on for years and is an essential part of local culture.
