Photographers: Bunting (Palmerston and Fielding); Child & Co. (Ohingaiti, N.Z.) and Partington (Wanganui). The Order of Free Gardeners is a fraternal society that was founded in Scotland in the middle of the 17th century. Like numerous other friendly societies of the time, its principal aim was the sharing of secret knowledge linked to the profession and mutual aid.
