Stock Up on Herbs at the Epicurious Garden
Pick herbs for free on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at South Bank Parklands.
Overview
Herbs are the accessories of the culinary world. Sure, you can make something perfectly fine without them, but they add that extra something. If your thumbs are more green than brown — or you're sick of buying supermarket bunches when you only need a few sprigs — South Bank has the answer.
Nestled amidst the riverside parkland's many drawcards is the Epicurious Garden, complete with a thriving stock of growing edible greenery. If you drop by between 7am and 2pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, you can grab whatever you need from the on-site harvest cart — and for free.
Getting in early is recommended, with each day's supply offered on a first-in, first-served basis. Everything planted and cultivated is organic, with produce rotated seasonally throughout the year. Volunteer gardeners are also on hand until 11.30am to answer any questions.
