Taniwha Daffodils & The Breeze Celebrate Spring with Havelock North Residents


Taniwha Daffodils and The Breeze radio station are welcoming the first day of Spring to Havelock North residents by delivering hundreds of daffodils donated by Taniwha Daffodils, Central Hawke’s Bay.

The Mabin family at Taniwha Daffodils on State Highway 2, ten minutes south of Waipukurau, have donated 200 daffodils which The Breeze Breakfast hosts Kevin Wagg and Megan Banks will deliver to Havelock North businesses and residents
from 11am tomorrow morning.

Operations Manager Justin Rae says ‘it’s a great opportunity to put a smile back on the residents of Havelock North faces and welcome the start of the new season’.

Annually the first day of spring is when Taniwha Daffodils open the gates to their 20 acre daffodil field to the public for the month of September. Visitors are able to wander, picnic and pick stems with proceeds each year going to Central Hawke’s Bay Plunket.

Taniwha Daffodils are also hosting two events in this year’s Spring Fling in Central Hawke’s Bay. The first, Dawn in the Daffodils, happens on Friday morning with ticketholders getting a unique view of the daffodils at first light and the opportunity to enter a photo competition being held that morning. The second event Dusk in the Daffodils will see the Daffodil field lit up
with a light installation and is being held on Friday 16th September, information and tickets are available at www.thespringfling.co.nz
