Veggie Garden is on Terrace 5. At the top of the garden at Terrace 7 is another rainforest garden. Terrace 6 serves as gardening materials storage and plant nursery. All Terraces are accessible by a 3 tonne truck from either Main or Second Driveway. The Main Driveway is constructed of concrete and gravel and the Second Driveway is built from gravel or grass.
