An Indigenous community in the Northern Territory has teamed up with the nation's largest garlic producer to plant a commercial garlic crop in the middle of Australia. 

In the red sandy soils of the Alekarenge Horticultural farm, 350 kilometres north of Alice Springs, Alyawarr women Sabrina Kelly and Tisha Corbett are excited to see the project expanding.
