The logo of Garden Globe, featuring a sunflower and a sun, symbolizes energy, positivity, and growth. The sunflower’s behaviour of following the sun represents a dedication to growth and nurturing. The 12 petals reflect the months of the year and the divisions of the company. The centre of the logo, resembling the Koru, signifies new life and growth.
Garden Globe plans to reach the public through its website, social media pages, fridge calendars, maps, quarterly magazines, and competitions. The initiative has already aligned with Regional Councils in New Zealand, focusing on environmental management and collaboration with local authorities. The initial focus is on the Bay of Plenty region.
Funding for various initiatives is generated through the production of Fridge Calendars, which are distributed throughout the region. The calendars feature useful information, and local community partners, and are designed to be visually engaging and practical. The Garden Stay concept involves various forms of accommodations set within beautiful garden settings, contributing to the overall goals of the platform.
