Fruit Tree Pruning & Care

If you want to make the most of your fruit trees or maybe you’re thinking of planting some new ones then this is a good time of year to do this. This very popular annual pruning & care workshop will give you all the basics to assist in your success.

David Bayly, our in-house tree care expert, will be once again running this very useful and timely workshop in his relaxed and interactive style.

Topics to be discussed will include:

- Tools required
- Pros & cons of various trees
- Site selection and preparation
- Planting methodologies/techniques
- General tree care
- Safety considerations

These events are extremely popular (hence the reason for running two) so Booking is Essential as spaces are limited (see below for booking details).

Afterwards you will also be able to stroll around the beautiful Sculpture Gardens which has around 40 marvellous pieces created for our 2024 exhibition by local and international artists on display; as well as the extended nature trail (approximately 3.5km in total). 

We also have our cute little coffee shop on site, plus of course the Plant Centre for you to browse through.

Our knowledgeable and friendly staff will also be on hand to help with any other garden related questions.

The gardens and nature trail are unfortunately not suitable for wheelchairs or walking frames.

Venue location: 1481 Kaipara Coast Highway (SH16), 4km north of Kaukapakapa
