Gibbs Farm Trip

Lyn from Tauranga Tasting Tours & Charters

Last weekend Paul took a Papamoa retirement village group on a 2–day trip to the wonderful Gibbs Farm & other North-Auckland venues.
Gibbs Farm is an open-air sculpture park containing the largest collection of large-scale sculptures in NZ.We had permission to drive around the park to help with mobility issues.
Prior to the park, the group viewed the gannet colony at Muriwai. A bit sparse on gannets! On Saturday, the group headed from our accommodation to the Matakana Farmers’ Market, before travelling on to Morris & James to view their beautiful range of hand-made pottery. Several hours were then spent exploring the gardens & galleries at the exceptional Sculptureum

En route for home we visited Chocolate Brown Chocolaterie for a tasting of their hand-made beautiful, award-winning chociolate

A really enjoyable tour & we’ll look forward to doing it again later in the year.
