Gallery and also Hoochery Distillery. First stop was the Sandalwood Gallery
where there were many interesting products produced from the locally grown
Indian Sandalwood. We watched a short video on the plantation and learnt
how the sandalwood tree is reliant on a host tree. We had wondered why the
plantations looked a little untidy with different types of trees.
The Ord River irrigation has opened this area up for a variety of
production. The irrigation channels run alongside the road and there were
huge areas planted out. We had visited an orchard a couple of days
previously which grew varieties of lettuce, tomatoes, melons etc. We
weren't sure what these plants were but they certainly looked healthy.
