March 15 Garden Entry PLUS Devonshire Tea

(Pre-book your Devonshire Tea with this ticket option so Mum knows how many big fat fluffy scones to bake!)

Join me in my cottage garden in the country this Saturday from 11am-4pm to mark the end of summer and welcome autumn's arrival. Bring your own picnic or sample all my favourite seasonal jams with a delicious Devonshire Tea in the wee hall. The lawn is not its best (haha) but there's plenty to enjoy, including a stunning dahlia floral demonstration at midday by West Auckland gardener and artist Fiona Henderson. Fiona will also have her gorgeous garden-themed pottery for sale. I'll do a talk about how to create a cottage garden at 2pm and there will also be vintage homewares, books, preserves and baby houseplants available to purchase. 

Note: Sweetgum Cottage is at 2495 Hunua Road 
Drive into the garden to park in the paddock (please don't park on the road verge)
