Ohariu Valley Garden Ramble
The Ohariu Valley Garden Ramble is on Sunday (November 28) featuring 11 gardens. The ramble is a fund-raiser for the historic Ohariu Valley Hall, which opened in 1906.
The gardens range from large country estates to smaller easier care gardens. As well as gardens, there will be a country style market at the hall selling everything from plants and preserves to refreshments.
This event only happens every few years and is a rare chance to see inside a unique rural community only 15 minutes from the central city. Sunday November 28, 10am to 4pm, rain or shine. Tickets can be bought from leigh@metcon.co.nz

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
