Kodukandis: Harku mõis, park ja järv, 1979

Harku, just west of Tallinn, has an old manor that was then home to a research institute, a dendrological park and a lake. In this partly preserved episode of 'Kodukandis' Hubert Veldermann sits in the manor house with a researcher talking about Harku and its villages, walks the arboretum with the woman who looked after it, and hears from local people about Harku lake and what was happening to it. The manor house still stands among the old park trees.

Tallinnast lääne pool asuvas Harkus on vana mõis, kus toona tegutses teadusasutus, dendropark ja järv. „Kodukandis“ sarja osaliselt säilinud saates istub Hubert Veldermann mõisahoones koos teaduriga, kes räägib Harkust ja selle küladest, jalutab dendropargis selle hoidjaga ning kuulab kohalikelt, mis Harku järvega toimub. Mõisahoone seisab tänini vana pargi puude keskel.
