Hamilton Gardens
The award-winning Hamilton Gardens attract around one million visitors each year. Set amongst 54 hectares, the gardens are quite different to the traditional botanical garden model – and include five different garden collections and 21 themed gardens. The council-owned gardens also produce an incredible range of food – honey, eggs, lemon curd, marmalade and kumara. Kathryn Ryan speaks with Gus Flower, Operations Manager for the gardens, who shares growing tips and recipes for lemon curd and marmalade.
