10.30am - 3.30pm Saturdays 8th, 15th and 22nd March
34 St Johns Tce, Redwood, Tawa

Rob and I would like to invite you to share the beauty of our late summer garden during 3 Saturdays in March.
Whether contemplation in a Zen garden, relaxing by potted citrus on a Mediterranean terrace, or exploring amongst lush foliage in a jungle type setting is your wish we are sure to have something for you. The perennial border is a kaleidoscope of bright colours, the mini meadow is alive with bees and butterflies and there is so much more.
We have a terraced 633m2 property which we have developed over 30+ years into garden rooms with different themes and colour schemes.
There will also be plants for sale

Entry is by $5 donation per adult please. We use funds raised to help purchase tulip bulbs for our spring open days and to keep improving the garden for your and our enjoyment.
A portion of the funds is also donated to the Malaghan Institute of Medical Research, a Wellington based biomedical research company.

💸 The DMAPS Flight Path has caused substantial financial loss to thousands of homeowners*.

🏠 Property values have dropped between $20K - $262K*
💥 Total property loss: Up to $453 million across affected suburbs
📊An economist from Sapere Research Group, a leading Australasian consultancy, has provided an affidavit detailing the loss of property values for homeowners below and near the DMAPS flight paths
✈️This expert insight shows the wealth transfer from residents and families to multi-million-dollar corporations like airlines and Wellington Airport. Find out more: planesensewellington.com/insights**
📉*The reduction in property values as a result of the DMAPS flight path change is independent of generic fluctuations in property values
