My 2022 Prospa Local Business Hero nomination
Page 42 Cafe on the main street of Carterton, Wairarapa
Constant community support!
Free coffee for critical workers at key stages of the pandemic.
"Pay what you can afford" days - people can get a meal for $1, or pay more than the menu price to "pay it forward"
Monthly community award and $$.
Great employer who grows the skills of local youth, with a fantastic culture set by the owner Josh.
No surprise that one of the managers, Larissa, recently won a highly-prized award for services to the community with the ridiculous amount of involvement she has in a gamut of youth programmes.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
