An arboretum on a working sheep and cattle station at 187A Berry Road in Tiniroto, near Gisborne. It is home to more than 3,000 species and varieties of trees and shrubs across 50 hectares, including oaks, alders, cherries, magnolias and maples. The website says its Mexican oak collection is the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. The grounds have walking tracks, lakes and gardens, and a visitor can see the arboretum within an East Coast farm setting. The arboretum is run by a charitable trust, which has held that status since 1993.
Farm and garden are part of the same property. The site has an online searchable catalogue of the plant collection, and it also sells plants from the collection. The arboretum began with the Berry family's interest in oak trees. Cottage bookings and general enquiries go to Diane Playle on 06 863 7083.
