HALLOWEEN MAP PARTICIPATION CALL 🎃
After last year's success I’m doing the “Halloween in the Hutt” google map again to help those who create full Halloween home displays, are ‘trick or treater’ friendly, and/or organisations that host community based Halloween events make themselves known.
If you would like to participate in having your event or home on the map, please complete this form forms.gle...
This form is kept in confidence by me and is not shared publicly. Only your address and Halloween details will be made public when the google map goes live for community use (details and dates provided on the form).
If you need incentive/encouragement to take part, the photos are my place last year! Adults and kids alike had fun, and took photos with some of the props we had out (the executioner block).
Looking forward to the spooks ahead and thanks in advance for participating!
Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

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.
