Summer Fun at the Village!

Howick Historical Village

Step back in time and soak up summer's beauty in the Village gardens, blooming with cottage flowers! With plenty of room for distancing in the idyllic outdoor setting, make a day of it. Bring a picnic or pick-up something from the Homestead Café. Explore the heritage buildings and learn about the lives of early Auckland settlers.

There was always work to be done! Help the Villagers with their chores at the following times in February :

· Feed the Chooks 10:45

· Butter making Wednesdays 11am

· Wash Day Sundays 11am


With outdoor games and crafts everyday!
