OLIO - share free food
Want free food? Hate food waste? Have excess produce from your garden?
I often buy a lettuce and, because I live alone, only get halfway through it before it goes limp or starts to rot.
OLIO is an app that allows people to share excess food. Volunteers sometimes even stop at cafes on their way home from work and pick up unsold food to give away.
Radio New Zealand interviewed the creator of OLIO in December. I'm sure you can find the interview online still. Or just download the OLIO app and start sharing. There are currently only a few of us in the neighbourhood, and obviously it works better when there are more people. So spread the word!

Poll: Should employees be able to work from home?
At the post-Cabinet press conference, the National Party asserted they want public sector staff to return to the office. This has opened a conversation about other sectors in New Zealand who have adopted working from home (WFH).
