Join Rani and her neighbourhood of wonderful gardeners at ‘Rani’s Patch’ a section of the Upfield bike path south of Batman Station which has been transformed into a lush garden. You’ll hear the story of how the site has been transformed and learn the names of the incredible array of edibles and non-edibles which have been woven together to create a scented colourful array of vegetation.
Rani will also provide a tour of her home garden, which is no less inspiring. Her love of cooking from many cultures including traditional Bangladeshi dishes is reflected in the diverse range of vegetables and herbs she grows. Indian spinach (‘puisak’), bitter gourd (‘korolla’), and thistle grow alongside kaffir lime, turnip, kale, eggplant, persimmon, pomegranate and nectarine.
