Featherston Booktown at Festival of Christmas πŸ“šπŸŽ„

Sara Renall from

The Bookseller at the End of the World
Tuesday 12 July 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Greytown Town Hall

Best-selling author Ruth Shaw runs two tiny bookshops in Manapouri (Fiordland) and has written a delightful memoir called "The Bookseller at the End of the World". In conversation with indie bookseller Susan Jane Ryan (Mr Feather's Den Oddities & Delights), Ruth will weave together tales of the characters who visit her bookshops, musings about favourite books, and fantastic stories from her life - which may include the time she was held up by pirates while sailing the Pacific! You can buy her charming book on the night for signing.

Proudly brought to you by Featherston Booktown as part of the Greytown Festival of Christmas.

Tickets are $20 (plus booking fees)and can be purchased here: www.eventfinda.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.
