How independent are you food wise?
Kia ora koutou,
We here at the Selwyn & Ashburton Outlook are planning for an upcoming special edition on the cost of food in our lives. For that, we are really keen to talk to people who are mostly or totally independent when it comes to their food.
By that, we mean, do you grow or produce most of your own food? Or are you living the dream and producing and growing your entire diet?
If you think you fit the criteria, please get in touch!
Email Matt at matthew.salmons@fairfaxmedia.co.nz and we'll work out a time to meet up :)
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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.
