Lettuce
Potato
Capsicum
Red onion
Banana
Apple
Tangelo ( new season)
Internet banking orders need to be in by midnight Monday 4 October for pick up from your chosen location Thursday 7 October. Remember to bring a couple of bags.
Instructions on how to order can be found in the document attached. Your Internet Banking payment you make also serves as our ordering system.
We are so excited to welcome a new pickup-partnership! We welcome Sammy Norton CEO of the Industry Training Solutions (ITS) Allsorts Centre and her team. What an amazing organization this is. Allsorts is a cafe, a safe and inclusive space for community gatherings. They also work with ITS providing classes. Details about the Allsorts pick up point can be found in the Instructions; however, even if you do not live centre-city I recommend visiting Allsorts anyway and staying for a cuppa.
Have a lovely weekend everyone and please stay safe and well.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
