Need some new candles?
Hey Neighbours,
We love supporting NZ businesses and Downlight Candles is a New Zealand-owned and operated fragranced soy candle company. Each candle is hand-poured and the entire manufacturing process supports employment opportunities for young adults with Down syndrome or learning disabilities.
Next time you need a new candle choose Downlights and support Kiwis and help be a part of changing workplace norms by switching to social gifting with Downlights!
(P.S. $1 from every candle sold is donated via the Downlights Charitable Trust!)
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.
