Posted on Thursday, 15th April 2021 by Janine Rizzetti
What a fantastic talk we had at our meeting on Tuesday 13th April! Terry Young discussed Chinese Market Gardens in the northern suburbs, most particularly along Livingstone Street, Sparks Reserve and the Darebin Creek.
He has shared some of his resources with us.
Below is a map showing where the Chinese Market Gardens were located.You can zoom in closer and see the progress of his research on a shared Google Map at https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=161xXefJkuO5M-aYTK9Hg_gwaf8-b9xD6&usp=sharing
He has a webpage where he has listed the resources he consulted for his talk. You will find it at http://www.bit.ly/chinesemarketgardens
