Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:
• swap seeds with a neighbour
• gift a plant you've grown to a neighbour
• take some flowers to a neighbour
• organise a produce swap
• share garden tips or recipes for food in season
• create community gardens or berm pollinator pathways
• host an inclusive garden-themed working bee
• a friendly neighbourhood BBQ with homegrown ingredients
The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.

There are three community cases, two siblings who are students at Papatoetoe High School, and their household contact.
There was also one new case in MIQ on Wednesday.
Schools in Auckland can reopen. But Papatoetoe High School will remain closed for the rest of the week.
Teachers and students from that school must return a negative test before returning next week.
Covid-19 alert level 3 took effect in Auckland at 11.59pm on Sunday
The Government is making it easier for businesses to get one of its support measures - if current alert levels are extended.

How have you been passing the time during lockdown?
With Auckland back in Level 3, most of us are back working from the kitchen table, juggling work, school and childcare - simultaneously for some.
Last year, Stuff reported on the great array of hobbies New Zealanders picked up during the lockdown, such as home workouts and learning a few new cooking hacks. PC gaming also proved popular with Google search trends for March 2020 showing a 400 per cent search increase for the term.

Read this story by reporter Lucy Xia about confusion over the lockdown boundaries in Kaipara:
Kaipara mayor Jason Smith is urging residents of Mangawhai, Kaiwaka and Oneriri to follow alert level 3 restrictions, despite saying the government is yet to confirm whether those areas fall within the level 3 boundary.
Smith said the Kaipara district has not been given clear guidelines by the government and it’s causing confusion over whether the community is part of the Auckland lockdown or not.
Auckland has entered level three until Wednesday night after three new community Covid-19 cases. The rest of the country is at level 2.
Roadblocks will be placed along Auckland's borders preventing all but essential travel in and out of the region in alert level 3.
Roadblocks will be placed along Auckland's borders preventing all but essential travel in and out of the region in alert level 3.
Smith said he was informed by local police around 8pm last night of roadblocks north of Mangawhai, Kaiwaka and Oneriri, which means these regions should be under alert level 3.
Smith said they have requested clarification from the Ministry of Health and are still waiting for an answer.
The mayor said he is “extremely concerned” for the residents of these districts which make up half of Kaipara’s population.
Smith said in the meanwhile he is urging locals to remain at alert level 3, while the Kaipara District Council has closed its office for the day with staff working from home.
“I know the government has many priorities, but they need to be clear about changes of the alert level borders
“It could be handled better...so people could be aware in advance,” he said.
The Ministry of Health has been approached for comment.
