Kia Ora, as a lot of you see some of my posts from time to time, I thought I’d share a bit about myself!
My name is Juarn and I am the owner of Kandu gardens and part owner of Rigby Contracting. I have 2 daughters and my partner and I live in Waipawa! I was born in AUZ but back the Warriors 🤙🏾
I’ve had numerous job roles in my life, hardscaping for Espaso Verde, infantryman in the NZ Army, silviculture forestry crew member, mitre 10 garden centre, Watties complex recipe to name a few.
My hobbies include but are definitely not limited to, surfing, gardening, fishing, golfing, chainsaw work, art, digger work, sport, Beers and pool games at clubs Hastings.
I started Kandu gardens so I could surf when I wanted to! I also love well landscaped gardens, backyards and plants so it’s a passion I love helping places add more flow. It turns out I got far busier than I thought and I surf a little less now!
Thanks for following Kandu gardens on its journey and how it all unfolds!
