Rebuilding of Hobbiton begun!

[Emmie]

The re-building of Hobbiton has begun, with the planting of hedgerows and fruit trees. An extension to the path that passes in front of Bag End has been marked out also. There will be several new Hobbit holes dotted along its length.

OMG this is exciting. :D Thanks for posting these. I wish I could fly to NZ and watch them building myself.

OMG this is exciting.
Definitely... I wonder if they've begun planning or looking for other locations yet. I can't wait until we start seeing pictures of them all.
