Hospice Fundraising Garden Party
A very special garden party, hosted in a delightful garden, with a menu of culinary delight and a variety of unique and exceptional auction items…
Funds raised from the evening will provide essential funds for Hospice Taranaki to deliver patients and their family/whanau with specialised palliative care.
Phone Rose 027 589 8771 - with any questions.
The support of the wonderful Sponsors has made this possible and we now need to sell as many tickets to this event as possible therefore we are relying on all you very generous people in Taranaki to come and join us for a fun evening!
On Arrival in the Tranquil Parklike Garden you will be greeted with a Glass of Bubbly from Fitzroy Liquor.
You can wander around the grounds at your leisure while listening to the live music from Midlife Crisis and sipping your free Gin Cocktail compliments of Juno Gin and tasting the deliciously special canapes from Delistar Catering.
You will then be invited into the fabulous marquee from Dobson’s Marque Hire. Here Jamie Phillips and his wonderful team will tease your tastebuds with 6 courses of his carefully prepared delectable morsels. During this time you will be entertained by our “Mystery Guest Speaker”.
We are fortunate to have the services of Peter McDonald as our MC and Auctioneer for the items that have been donated for auction with all proceeds to the Taranaki Hospice.
Tickets $120.00

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

When John was six years old he hammered a nail into his favorite tree to mark his height.
Ten years later at age sixteen, John returned to see how much higher the nail was.
If the tree grew by five centimetres each year, how much higher would the nail be?
