There are a number of ways to view Korito Garden throughout the year as follows:
- The garden is open to visitors during the Taranaki Garden Festival which is a 10 day event from late October through the first week in November. The entrance fee is $5 per person and there is a tour and permaculture talk daily at 11.00am – www.gardenfestnz.co.nz
- The garden is free to wander if you book in to the air B n B – www.airbnb.co.nz/rooms/18832667
- You can book in for a one-day or weekend course and get to see the garden during this time.
- The garden has open days twice a year (advertised on the home page) where the entrance fee is $10 per person and includes a 2 hour walk and talk around the garden as below.
- You can book a private tour to the garden for your group/family. Cost is either $75 for a one hour guided tour (min 1 – maximum 20 people) or $150 for a 2 hour tour (min 1 – maximum 30). The garden tours walk you through the garden, learning about the different systems of growing food, planting, improving soil, guild planting, permaculture zones and fruit tree systems. We finish off with a wander through the 350 year old bush block at the bottom of the property. All private tours must be booked at least one week in advance.
- If you are a member of a gardening group and would like to tour the garden, the cost is $10 per person (min 10 people) for a 1.5 hour walk and talk.
