Whangārei Quarry Gardens are a subtropical oasis created and run by volunteers in the remnants of a former stone quarry in Northland. The Gardens are set over 60 acres and feature a lake, waterfalls, picnic areas, forest walks, a variety of garden styles, and several historical remnants. The Gardens are home to an amazing array of native and exotic subtropical plants and have been bringing people and plants together for over 20 years. It is the community that keeps the Gardens flourishing year after year for all to enjoy.
