NIGHT LIGHTS GARDEN WALK

Judy from Otaki District

TONIGHT (Sat 12th)!!

NIGHT LIGHTS GARDEN WALK -
Meadowcroft Garden, 722 Otaki Gorge Rd

After a great turn out last night, Neil and Avis MacInnes are again opening their special garden again TONIGHT.
Discreet lighting brings the garden alive after dark and provides an opportunity to see another side of this unique garden - and to also raise funds for the Te Horo Hall renovations. The garden is usually only opened at night to friends and family, so this is a special second chance.

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.

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 as there are steps, sloping pathways and ponds. Every effort has been made by the owners to ensure the garden and car parks safety. Both are entered at visitors own risk.

THANKYOU NEIL & AVIS - and the Mansell family for providing parking in their paddock! 🤩🤩

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.
