Following a career in the health sector Mich Newton changed paths which led her to the role of Visitor Services Manager at Auckland Botanic Gardens. She says I have been enjoyed being able to satisfy my love of plants, gardens, and people. Responding to the changing ways our visitors seek information, adapting to trends and adopting technological advances have all been part of my teams’ journey to connect people with plants and the natural environment.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz
