Lava Glass Sculpture Garden Awarded Earth Star for Sustainability

We’re proud to announce that the Lava Glass Sculpture Garden has been awarded the Earth Star by the New Zealand Gardens Trust - a recognition that celebrates our ongoing commitment to environmentally responsible gardening and sustainable practices.

This prestigious award is given to gardens that meet the target score across a comprehensive set of sustainability-focused criteria, including:

  • Composting and soil health

  • Eco-sourced and native planting

  • Water conservation

  • Natural pest and weed management

  • Carbon sequestration and climate-conscious design

Our team has worked passionately to ensure that our garden not only provides a breathtaking experience for visitors but also supports the health of our environment. 

We’re delighted to see this mahi recognised by the NZ Gardens Trust and to join a growing network of Earth Star gardens across Aotearoa who are leading the way in sustainable garden tourism.

Whether you're a plant lover, an art enthusiast, or simply someone who enjoys the peace and inspiration of a beautiful outdoor space, we invite you to explore the Lava Glass Sculpture Garden - where art, nature, and sustainability come together in harmony.
