INDIGENOUS ROOFTOP GARDEN OPENS

Mirvac and cultural start-up Yerrabingin have launched Australia’s first Indigenous urban food production farm on the rooftop of Yerrabingin House in South Eveleigh, New South Wales. The farm aims to celebrate the area’s rich Aboriginal culture and heritage by engaging workers, visitors and the local community in an event program, including workshops and tours relating to Indigenous culture, native plants, permaculture, environmental sustainability, and physical and mental health. Produce from the farm, including native bush foods, will also be on sale.
