Discover this garden in the heart of Auckland. Developed by volunteers, Eden Garden has become an award-winning destination with beautiful plant collections that always provide something in bloom. Use of eco-friendly methods to control weeds encourages a thriving bio-diversity to encourage native fauna, geckos, wetas, insects and butterflies supported through a butterfly breeding programme.
Funding has been badly affected due to COVID-19 and we need support to keep our Garden open and ensure families can continue to celebrate the lives of loved ones. Support can be given through garden entry, memorials, room hire and bequests.
A key attraction within Eden Garden requires some substantial and costly maintenance. Donations to support this work are urgently needed.
Our half price special is not only a great deal but you will also be helping us through this time of turmoil. It makes a great gift too!
Eden Garden is a beautiful garden in which to celebrate the life of a loved one.
Spend an hour, half a day or longer at Eden Garden. There are many paths to discover – we have a childrens trail activity sheet and a café for a well earned stop.
We are a five minute drive from Newmarket and Mt Eden village. We have plenty of free parking on site. Alternatively, we are a 15 minute walk from Newmarket and Manukau Road with plenty of bus stops.
The central area is mostly flat for easy walking and wheelchair access. Elsewhere, particularly on the edge of the old quarry, some paths are steep and rocky and suitable footwear should be worn.
Umbrellas and wheelchairs are available to borrow from Reception.
Guided tours with a member of the garden staff can be arranged. Please call Reception at 09 638 8395 or email us for more information.
