Home chefs get their hands on secret ingredient

Home chefs can now get their hands on the secret ingredient of top New Zealand eateries like The Grove, Masu and Libertine, with the official launch of The Secret Garden’s retail range.

The Secret Garden’s fresh edible flowers and unusual produce have made guest appearances in celebrity-chef cookbooks like 'Cut' by Josh Emett, ventured into modelling for restaurant websites and made their TV debut on Masterchef and My Kitchen Rules NZ.

Now, the secret is out as the boutique growers’ incredible edible flowers and adorable baby radish range are officially made available to home chefs via Farro Fesh in Auckland and Moore Wilson’s in Wellington.

Tamsin Wilson, chief grower and picker, is the special ingredient behind The Secret Garden. A self-confessed 'foodie', her passion for good honest food, love of
nature and fascination for growing the unusual and interesting are what The Secret Garden is all about.

“At The Secret Garden we’re committed to helping home chefs look like pros. With our incredible edible flowers and cute baby radish we hope to excite and inspire people to create impressive, culinary masterpieces at home every day of the week.” says Wilson.

Grown in a top-secret Auckland location, The Secret Garden’s edible flowers and baby radish are lovingly sown, naturally grown and personally hand-picked and packed. For perfect results, only the finest, most flawless, fresh specimens are selected and carefully packaged for the convenience of customers.
