The Driving Creek pottery has a small sculptured garden nestled in the trees. Many sculptures spill out onto the hill side and can be viewed by taking a ride on the unique mountain railway through a regenerating kauri forest. The clay for these sculptues is dug from the hillside on the property & transported down in the minature train where it is processed, created & fired in a wood fired kiln.
