Hollard Gardens is a 4.5 hectare horticultural oasis in the heart of dairy country not far from Egmont National Park. In 1927 Bernie Hollard, and his wife Rose, fenced off a section of native bush on the family farm and began to develop the garden. Today Hollard Gardens is a garden collection of national importance - a true plant lovers' garden. The extensive collection features herbaceous plants, azaleas, rhododendrons and an eclectic temperate-zone mix of rare and unusual trees and shrubs. It also features a great children's playground, free barbecues and an inspiring food forest and vegetable garden area.
