Indigenous Landscapes

Indigenous Landscapes NT is a land management and landscaping enterprise. As the enterprise is contracted for particular jobs, people are employed. This has been a means of providing employment to Aboriginal people and utilising their training in particular areas such as landscaping and concreting.

A number of significant landscaping contracts have been fulfilled on remote communities and within Alice Springs.

Nursery

The Tangentyere Nursery has been running since 1984. Tangentyere Nursery grows native plants for the Alice Springs town camps and for community Bushland Management programs. The nursery also runs a free plant program so that any Aboriginal person living on a town camp is entitled to a number of free native plants a month.

The nursery is open to the general public from 8.30am until 4.00pm Monday to Friday and sells native plants and a range of fruit and citrus trees at very competitive prices.
