We’re a small organic flower and food farm in Matangi, New Zealand, rooted in regenerative practices and the rhythms of the seasons.
Alongside our pick-your-own flower gardens, we grow food, nurture soil health, and share what we learn through workshops and community events inspiring others to slow down and reconnect with nature. 
At Tomtit Farm website you can book and experience the joy of handpicking your own fresh blooms straight from the garden! We grow a diverse selection of seasonal flowers, and our Pick Your Own Flowers sessions allow you to wander through the gardens, soak in the beauty, and create your own bespoke bouquet. You can also book a time to pick your flowers for your event, we will ensure you have a private booking to enjoy the garden. At our website we have a blog space full of information for you. Return to the Māra workshop series can also be booked via our website.]]></description><link>https://www.tomtitfarm.co.nz/farm-journal-and-events</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 29 Apr 2026 23:36:48 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://www.tomtitfarm.co.nz/blog-feed.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><item><title><![CDATA[Tulip Club at Tomtit Farm - A New Way to Experience Spring]]></title><description><![CDATA[Tulips have a way of making people stop.

At Tomtit Farm, tulip season is one of the most beautiful and fleeting parts of the year. For a few short weeks between August and early October, the garden begins to shift. Rows of tulips slowly open, colours change week to week, and the farm starts to feel alive again after winter.
