Whangarei Quarry Gardens
37A Russell Road Kensington, Whangarei 0112 New Zealand
Whangārei Quarry Gardens is a subtropical oasis created by volunteers in the remnants of a former quarry in Te Tai Tokerau (Northland), Aotearoa (New Zealand). The Gardens are open to the public and feature subtropical gardens, rare plant species, waterfalls, and streams. Ruins from the original quarrying days create an interesting backdrop to plantings and serve as a reminder of the site's industrial heritage. Whangarei Quarry Gardens holds a 5-star rating from the New Zealand Garden Trust, and the unique scented Camellia collection makes it a Camellia Garden of Excellence with the International Camellia Society. The Gardens have been created through the blood, sweat, tears, and laughter of volunteers. Entry is by DONATION, with all proceeds used to maintain and develop our gardens.
