Hamilton's gardening superhero

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Hello neighbours,

Last year, this amazing lady from your neighbourhood was named the GARDENA Gardener of the Year. Vera Farrant had raised $100,000 for Habitat for Humanity by selling plants.

Nominations for the 2017 GARDENA Gardener of the Year is now open! Can Hamilton make it 2 years in a row? Surely there are other superheroes like Vera doing terrific work in your community. Send your nominations to NZ Gardener, PO Box 6341, Wellesley St, Auckland. You can also enter on our website, nzgardener.co.nz.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
