Garage or Hall Needed for February Garage Sales
MMMT has been gifted a container load of stuff to sell! We would like to hold two garage sales in February to coincide with the student flat influx. Do have a space we can use? It would need to be in Hamilton, be close to or visible from the road (ie not down an alleyway and have plenty of nearby parking. On the Friday we would lay sheets over nay of your articles left in the garage, bring and lay out boxes and tables. On the Saturday and Sunday we would man the garage from 5.30-3.00pm. On the Sunday afternoon and Monday morning we would re-pack and remove all boxes and tables. If you can let us use such a space, you would be helping us pay the Registered Music Therapists who work with patients in the residential dementia care facilities we serve. For details of our work, see out website, Facebook page or the attached copy of our latest newsletter. If you can help, phone Kath: 021 08187218.
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.
