Adrienne Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Where is a good place to go to get garden soil in Auckland, the closer in to the city the better. Not after topsoil, just decent garden soil for the raised vege garden we are putting up this weekend. We means he, and I will watch and provide the cold drinks I have googled but haven't had the most success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackp Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Depends how much you need. Central landscape supplies is pretty good and have locations all over Auckland (and deliver). If you're going for cheap ring around the plant nurseries on your area (may not be many near CBD) as they often get rid of their old potting mix etc. I got several trailer loads for my mum from Knights nursery in Albany at $30 a load. Could be a good excuse to go to hollywoods in Albany and spend the savings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrienne Posted August 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 tis alright Sophia - I will go buy it. Considering I need to borrow a car with a tow bar and a trailer and some muscle to help I don't think I will be off in the middle of the night gathering it. I only need about 300 litres worth.
