Taniwha Daffodils is a working farm and event venue at 3440 State Highway 2, about 10 minutes south of Waipukurau in Central Hawke's Bay. The property has a 120-year-old homestead and 20 acres of trees, ponds and daffodils, with more than a hundred varieties grown on the land. It is best known for its daffodil season each September, when visitors come to walk the grounds and buy bulbs and flowers. The farm is also a wedding venue, with a ceremony by the pond, a reception in the shearers' quarters and room for a marquee anywhere on the grounds. Features include a rustic bridge over the pond and a resident white swan.
A couple who married there said the grounds, the trees and the photography spots were the highlight, and that the venue's team helped them bring their vision to life. Guests enjoyed walking between the ceremony and reception. The farm sells daffodils with proceeds going to the CHB Parents Centre and the CHB Pregnancy and Parenting Hub, and volunteers sell the flowers on weekends.
