NIGHT LIGHTS GARDEN WALK: APRIL 11th & 12th

Judy from Otaki District

TE HORO HALL – what’s up in April?

NIGHT LIGHTS GARDEN WALK: APRIL 11th & 12th
Meadowcroft Garden, 722 Otaki Gorge Road.

After fabulous feedback from visitors last year, Neil and Avis MacInnes are again opening their special garden at night in two weeks’ time. SAVE the DATES!

Clever lighting brings the garden alive after dark and provides an opportunity to see another side of this unique garden. Very popular in daylight, the garden is usually only opened at night to friends and family, so this is an opportunity you should not miss.

On both FRIDAY 11th & SATURDAY 12th of April Meadowcroft garden will open to all from 7pm – last entry 9.30pm. $15pp and $5 for children under 12 years (cash only please).
Off road parking will be available.

This year the exterior of Te Horo Hall needs to be reclad (Stage 2 of the Hall renovations). The entry fee will contribute to this work – your support is much appreciated.

Please note:
Due to water features and reduced lighting the garden is not suitable for young children, and no pets are allowed. Special care is required with steps, sloping pathways and ponds. While every effort has been made by the owners to ensure the garden and car parks safety, visitors enter at their own risk.

And – in case of bad weather, please go to our website on Thurs 10th April, to check if the event is going ahead – www.tehorohall.org.nz...

A BIG THANK-YOU to Neil and Avis for making their garden available again this year, and to the neighbouring Mansell family for use of their paddock for car parking.
SEE YOU THERE!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
