Time: 11:00am - 1:00pm (or until sold out)
Location: Beautification Trust - 38 Holmes Road, Manurewa
Cost: $15 per bag

Pilot Programme: Initially this will run for 6 weeks; if the pilot programme is popular with the community, we will aim to make it a long-term offering.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

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.
