Wairarapa Wines Harvest Festival - this Saturday
Wairarapa’s finest wineries, restaurants, and food producers will showcase their wares set amongst ancient native trees in the Festival’s spectacular riverside setting this Satruday (17th Feb).
The festival is held at the beautiful, sheltered riverside setting locally known as ‘The Cliffs' on the banks of the Ruamahunga River at the end of Dakins Road in rural Wairarapa. Its remoteness and vineyard setting is part of its appeal while still being close to public transport.
Just 10 minutes from both Masterton and Carterton: a regional shuttle service will run to and from the festival site at the beginning and end of the day. Reservations are essential, add this to your ticket when you purchase.
Wineries at this years’ event include: Alexia, Big Sky Wines, Cambridge Road Vineyard, Columbo Martinborough, Coney Wines, Fairmont Estate, Gladstone Vineyard, Grava, Huntress, Johner Estate, Le Gra Vineyard & Winery, Matahiwi Estate, Nga Pari, Stad_ko, Te Hera Estate and Urlar.
Don't miss this classic Wairarapa event - its made for summer.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
