Taranaki Garden Festival and Taranaki Arts Trail Official launch 14 July 2021
This 4.5-ha farm and retreat is teeming with vegetables and fruit trees. This largely self-sustainable property, named after the ancient pā site on its boundary, utilises crop rotation, seed preservation, companion planting and mulching.
