SPECIAL - ISLANDS In our third special for the year, Gardening Australia explores the unique culture of islands - from the Tiwis to Tassie. Tiwi College: Costa and Clarence get an insight into the cultural role that the Tiwi College plays in island life. Cultural Connection: The Jilimara Arts Centre on Melville Island is a hub of traditional artistry, and Costa and Clarence discover that plants are at the centre of it all. Plants of the Sea: Tino is exploring underwater kelp forests in Tassie, taking a dive with a leading marine biologist to learn more about these unique plants and their future. Farming for the Islands: Costa and Clarence drop in on Milikapiti Farm, where the locals are growing fresh fruit and vegetables to ensure a constant supply to the island community. The Next Generation: Costa and Clarence head into the bush with some junior Tiwi rangers and find out how the next generation is learning to manage the land.
