JOIN A GARDEN CLUB NEAR YOU.

Garden clubs are the best way to meet like-minded people close to you. We encourage joining a garden club to share the love of gardening in your community!
There are many garden clubs throughout New Zealand. In the internet type in “Garden Club Near Me” and a list of clubs will come up. Some garden clubs are specifically for a certain type of flower, like Roses. So email the club to ask what they are most interested in. You will eventually find one that suits you.

PURCHASE PRODUCT AT:

Some Garden Centres stock our products. But as usual if the products are not purchased regularly then the centre won’t stock them.
Customers just need to ask for our products and maybe they will stock them.

We now have four proactive Garden Centre’s stocking our products:

Springvale Garden Centre, 18 Devon Road, Whanganui is one centre that has stuck by their customers and made our products available to them. Carol will be happy to provide what ever you require.

Touchstone Garden Centre, Gizzy. 129a Ormond Road, Whataupoko, Gisborne. See Lisa and Nik for advice.

Green Door Garden & Decor, in Havelock North. See Kelly Jean for information about our products.

Geraldine Garden Centre in Geraldine. See Kay or Tommy for your requirements.

Biological products are new to the home gardener, so have a look through our website and you will find plenty of information to convince you that growing clean green fruit and veges is the healthiest way of providing food to your family. Home gardens were big back in the 50’s and 60’s, but now with the cost of living sky rocketing they are now making a big comeback.
