You’ll see Wendy, Philip (owners) and Liz who is indispensable all standing with me, who proudly grew each and every one of 1130 beautifully healthy tomato plants all from seed, just for me.

I would encourage you all if you haven’t already, to visit their wonderful Garden Nursery at 157 Alabama Road, Blenheim.

We're keen to talk to some people who feel strongly about Halloween one way or the other. If you have thoughts to share, please email homed@stuff.co.nz and we'll be in touch.
