THIS SUNDAY at Alberton Market Day!

Rendell McIntosh from Alberton

Get your avocados fresh from the growers - Kamai Ranges Orchard, Katikati ($5 bags and avos both ready to eat and to ripen), the first season's strawbs, blueberries and delicious Campari tomatoes from Sweet Red Strawberries, Helensville, as well as produce grown by Mt Albert locals at Sanctuary Community Organic Garden!

If you want them at the market please come by to grab a few avos and a punnet of strawbs! It applies to all the stalls but particularly the produce ones - if they dont have a good day we cant get them back! Lots of work for these growers to get their produce to market and there is waste and loss if it doesn't sell. Please come by to support 'em if you want them!

Exciting new specialty produce vendors this month include Savour (dairy-free nut cheese) and Milk 2.0 - Plant based milks. Lots of your favourite regulars like Cazador Delicatessen, Salash Delicatessen, Zino's Preserves, Delboys, Lulu's Tonics, Our Harvest Preserves, Foundry Chocolate, Grandma Jenkins Fruit Cakes (Christmas cakes!), Queen of Tarts (Christmas tarts!) Grownup Donuts and Otti & Olli return with their delicious artisanal goodies! Grab some gorgeous groceries and treats you wont find in the supermarket.

Alberton Market Day! Sunday 8 November. 10am-2pm. FREE ENTRY.
100 Mt Albert Road, Mt Albert.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
