How a community kitchen garden thrives in the heart of Kakadu
In short: For NAIDOC Week, Costa visits a flourishing community garden in Kakadu, Northern Territory, established by Jessie Alderson and Ben Tyler. This project highlights the cultivation of bush tucker and serves as a model for community-driven horticultural efforts in a unique landscape.
Located on Bininj and Mungguy Country, the garden represents a collaborative effort between Jessie Alderson and her son, Ben Tyler. The space focuses on growing bush tucker, integrating traditional knowledge with gardening practices to create an abundant food source for the local community.
The initiative is featured as part of Gardening Australia, a program dedicated to providing horticultural expertise and inspiration. By showcasing this specific garden, the segment offers insight into how community-led projects can successfully adapt to the distinct environmental conditions of Kakadu.
