Adam
CO FOUNDER & PASSIONATE HEALTH ENTHUSIAST
Meet Adam. A health and nature enthusiast since his early childhood days growing up on acreage in the beautiful Currumbin Valley.
He’s owned multiple businesses over the last one and a half decades and from his personal experiences feels strongly that businesses should be more so about purpose than profit. In today’s fast paced and consumer driven world you have a responsibility carry out business in an ethical, sustainable and conscious manner. “But most importantly you need to walk your talk and passionately believe in what you do”. He has a strong pull toward spending all his spare time in nature and has experienced first hand (and the hard way) that to live in true health your emotional, spiritual and physical wellbeing all need to be nourished daily. His grounding anchor in life are his two beautiful children and his amazing wife Megan who happens to be our awesome in house naturopath. If he’s not working on all things Bush Tucker Blends, you’ll find him in the ocean, hiking or cooking over an open fire.

Megan is our very own in house naturopath with a passion for whole-foods and whole-food supplements. She’s completed a 4-year Bachelor of Health Sciences degree. However, she went one step further and completed not one but two bachelor degrees being a Bachelor of Biomedical Science (commonly known as a pre-medicine degree) and Bachelor of Clinical Sciences majoring in naturopathy and complementary medicine.
Megan crammed 8 years of study into 6 years of rigorous academic study in the fields of biochemistry, microbiology, advanced nutrition, human anatomy, physiology, nutrition across the lifespan, medical chemistry, molecular genetics and biology, immunology, basic pharmacology, advanced nutrition and disease, medicinal plants, herbal medicine, human metabolism plus many more.
