SUMMARY:HP Garden Ramble
DESCRIPTION:If you’re home on November 16 you won’t want to miss the lovely bi-annual local Garden Ramble. This FREE event is just a fortnight away. All the details can be found here on this HP Garden Ramble 2019 + Address List or you can view below. If you are unable to print a copy at home\, hard copies are available at the House of Travel Hobsonville or the Information Centre behind Catalina Cafe.\n\n\nThis is the 3rd Garden Ramble to be held at Hobsonville Point and is held every two years so don’t miss out. There are 16 wonderful gardens you may visit. Bring your camera\, questions & curiosity. Additionally\, there are experts on-site (landscape gardeners\, composite decking\, cedar painter\, house washing and composting). You may also visit our Community Garden\, Kaipatiki Project at Engine Bay and House of Travel will have details of gardening tours.\n\n\nLimited on time? – check out all the garden features you are most interested in and go to those gardens first view the addresses below. Most houses here have small or sometimes no front yards. But tucked away in quiet corners behind houses are lovely spots where residents have created their own quiet oases full of colour and lush texture\, and with pleasant sitting areas.\n\n\nThis is a free event\, put on by locals for locals\, and made possible by residents generous enough to allow visitors to wander by. It’s a nice social event too\, as you can meet new people and chat about planting and landscaping with people whose outdoor areas are of a similar size to yours. These gardens\, spread around the Point\, will reveal how even tiny spaces can be beautiful.\n\n\nThe owners of these 16 gardens have graciously volunteered or been persuaded to make their gardens available. They do not claim to be experts but they do wish to encourage others to enjoy gardening and outdoor living as much as they do.  \nThere is a range of styles\, sizes and plant selections. Some gardens have been established for a few years\, and some are newly planted. Some gardens were designed by professionals and others were created by enthusiasts. The owners will be available to discuss what has worked and what has been less successful.  \nIf your time is limited\, check the HP Garden Ramble 2019 + Address List  and narrow down your search. If time is on your side\, you can easily spend the whole day wandering from garden to garden. So you can find all the lovely gardens on show on Nov 16 in the Hobsonville Point Garden Ramble. It’s all set for you to enjoy between 10am and 4pm.    \nHP Garden Ramble Flyer – all you need to know

NO OTHER HOUSEHOLD RUBBISH. \nClip those hedges\, pull those thistles and let’s get our area looking super for summer! \nNB If you’re a landlord with tenants whose rent covers garden maintenance\, remind them too of the need to weed.
