I was surprised with a trip to Gibbs Farm last
weekend. The farm is located in Kaipara, about one hour drive north of Auckland. You can see some of the sculptures from the road, but it absolutely worth a stop to see the whole park. There are also a good selection of animals. We saw emus, ostriches, bison, sheep and little lambs and giraffes. I even got the chance to feed a giraffe. That was a first!
This is an amazing privately owned sculpture park and
open monthly by prior appointment only to artists,
educational institutions, charities and the public. During 3-4 hours
walk you get to see amazing sculptures, landscape and animals (I fed a
giraffe!!!).
Another hint: the park is open on Friday 23rd November.
