    'Seven Aboriginal women from areas surrounding the Nepean River in Sydney's south west, contributed to this publication and took part in a project instigated by the Department in an effort to raise the profile of Aboriginal women in New South Wales.

    The seven Aboriginal women in Aboriginal Women's Heritage: Nepean, tell their own life stories. They tell about the changes they have seen over the years, the chores they had to do when they were young, and the daily routines. They tell about growing their own fruit and vegetables and eating whatever they grew or caught to supplement the family's diet.' Source: Aboriginal Women's Heritage: Nepean (2007)
