Who is your favourite gardening superhero?
Dear neighbours, in the October issue of NZ Gardener, you'll see the five finalists for our 2022 Ryman Healthcare Gardener of the Year competition. They've all done amazing things for their communities. You can read about their wonderful work here, and then vote for your favourite.
3-tier home-made worm farm (wooden) ($40)
This is an awesome little backyard 3-tier worm farm. (Start with one tier, when full, add the second, then the third. Always feed only the top tier.)
I made this from wood as I didn't want a big plastic thing in my backyard. It works great. Ideal for a domestic garden.
For an extra $10 I'll give you some starting mix with worms.
Pick up from Rangiora.
(I'm selling because I've up-scaled to a much bigger set-up.)

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?
Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.
Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.
So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?
