Pukaha Mt Bruce are holding their annual fundraising Garden Tour on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 November. They need volunteers to greet the public, provide directions and keep an eye on proceedings to keep the tour fun and successful.
Volunteers will be stationed at one of 11 gardens, mostly around Masterton with a handful in Eketahuna.
Hours are 9.30am to 4.30pm, split into morning and afternoon shifts. Volunteers are given a free ticket to the event, so you can visit the other gardens over the rest of the weekend.

They want a sale and have instructed us to present all offers.
Beginning life as a renowned restaurant and currently operating very successfully as boutique accommodation, The Peppertree works very well as a function centre and would also make a superb cellar door. Located with State Highway frontage close to Blenheim and situated on the soon to open Picton to Kaikoura cycleway, it is ideally positioned to cash in on Marlborough’s growing tourism industry.
Each of the five beautifully appointed suites has been subtly themed, providing individual charm as well as comfort. The heart of the home is a spacious, recently renovated farmhouse kitchen enjoying garden and orchard views. A large wood burner with wetback and solar heats the water for a series of radiators around the house, ensuring warmth year-round.
Encompassing four hectares and featuring organically managed vineyard and gardens, fruit trees, berry patches, olives and grazing for sheep, cattle, and horses, The Peppertree is close to being self-sufficient. The extra land also offers an opportunity for future expansion and development.
The rateable value for land and improvements is $1,520,000.
All offers requested to be received by 4 pm Wednesday 27 November 2019.
For more information or an appointment to view, please contact Michal or Tim.
