What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

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.

Lost Secateurs

Pip from Pirimai

Stupidly, I drove off this morning with my Secateurs on the roof of my car. Drove from Arthur Hobson Ave, down Trinity Cres into Downing Ave then up Taradle Rd into the Napier CBD! By chance has anyone picked them up? They have red or orangy-red handles (Can't exactly remember the colour!)
