Farm & Nursery
Open Days
If you're in and around Taranaki for the Garden Festivals, we're excited to finally have both the nursery & farm open this year! Since pretty much the beginning of Emerden we've been asked every year if we are open during the Garden Festival, but we've never been able to make the timings work... until this year!!
Friday 30 October 9am–11.30am
Saturday 31 October 9am–11.30am
Wednesday 4 November 9am–11.30am
Friday 6 November 9am–11.30am
Saturday 7 November 9am–11.30am
The farm is looking the best it has in years & our nursery is overflowing with plants, including a whole heap of plants we've never listed online!
Our perennials beds are all labeled so if you find something you love take a photo of the label, and we might just have plants available back at the nursery, and if we don't let us know what you're keen on and we can add it to our propagation list for the next season.
$5 farm entry per person (children 12 & under free)
No entry fee needed just for plant shopping.

Let us know if you have any questions at all.
Where to find us
276 Tikorangi Road East, Tikorangi
We're about 10 minutes inland from Waitara. Our driveway is a little drive-past-able, but we are the driveway on the right of the two.
Parking is available on the right of the drive in, front of our shed (& tanks).
Once you're parked up, follow the drive and you'll find the nursery and farm entry just past the shed on the right.
Other Notes
Our coral peonies peak around the first weekend, with the itoh peonies peaking or starting to peak around the second weekend.
There's plenty of room for strollers & prams, we have wide grass paths all around the perimeters and around our field blocks (inbetween the rows might be a little too tight though).
We do not have public toilets at the farm so please plan your visit accordingly.
