About this Event
A celebration of gardens, design, and the people behind them - in support of Dove Hospice.
The Garden Ramble is a one-day event offering rare access to a curated collection of private gardens in Auckland's Eastern Bays. From lush landscapes to clever planting ideas, each garden tells its own story, and this is your chance to explore, be inspired, and support a great cause.
Proudly presented by Humphreys Landscaping.
What is the Garden Ramble? The Garden Ramble is a self-guided tour through a handpicked selection of private gardens, opened to the public for one day only. Each garden reflects the creativity and passion of its owner, showcasing thoughtful design, planting ideas, and a deep love for the land.
Whether you're a seasoned gardener, a plant lover, or simply someone who enjoys beautiful spaces, the Garden Ramble offers a relaxed, inspiring day out, with all proceeds supporting Dove Hospice and its vital community care.
The event is proudly presented in partnership with Humphreys Landscaping, whose commitment to thoughtful landscape design and community connection makes this celebration possible.
