Our Founder:

Founded by Daniel Motlop, indigenous food entrepreneur & ex AFL player. Seven Seasons is a sustainable family business that passes down the knowledge of positive aboriginal culture and traditional methods of harvesting.

Larrakia country & the seasons:

For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, nature is our clock, the stars are our calendar, and changes in the winds, plants and animals tell us the new season has arrived. Dragonflies announce the dry season and fruiting of native cherries. The green tree frog tells us the big wet is coming. And when the bum gets fat on the green bush ant, we know it’s ripe with juicy, citrus pop.

Our products:

Currently, Seven Seasons has three spirits, Green Ant Gin, Bush Apple Gin & Native Yam Vodka. Each hero a native ingredient and signify one of the seven seasons of Larrakia country.

Sustainable Harvesting:

The Larrakia people have been sustainably harvesting for more than 60,000 years.The sustainable lores of the land, dictate the produce we can harvest and when the time for harvest is right.

Using these lores, we wild harvest more than three tonnes of native ingredients – green ants, bush apples and yams, as well as boobialla, strawberry gum, pepper berry and more.

By employing local harvesters and creating a market for their native ingredients, Seven Seasons has been able to create sustainable jobs for Aboriginal people.

Approved for sustainable harvesting by both the Government and Traditional Owners of the land.
