Pumpkins, sunflowers, zucchinis and worm tea will be among the ingredients at a free, family-focused workshop at Hollard Gardens, Kaponga, on Sunday (20 September).

Participants will pick up great tips on growing pumpkins and other summer favourites for next April’s Hollard Country Fair – with seed and soil provided. Worm tea and its uses will also be covered.

Sunday’s workshop runs from 2pm to 4pm at Hollard Gardens, 1686 Upper Manaia Road, Kaponga. It is part of a year-round programme of free public events at Hollards, Pukeiti and Tupare, the three heritage properties owned and managed by the Taranaki Regional Council on behalf of the people of the region.

For more information, see www.hollardgardens.info, www.pukeiti.org.nz and www.tupare.info. Social media users can also follow the Taranaki Regional Council gardens on Facebook (TaranakiRegionalGardens) and Twitter (@TaranakiRG).
