Crop Swap tomorrow (Sunday)
We have an active Crop Swap in the Brook at the Community Gardens (Tantragee Rd) on the first Sunday of the month. Anyone, no matter where you live, is invited.
What happens at a Crop Swap ?
Everyone brings some produce fruit, vegs, preserves, herbs, seedlings, and anything else that grows - to the Gardens and puts it on the table for all to see.
Then we tell everyone present what we've brought and a little about it.
After that we are free to choose what we want from the table. That's it !!
We sometimes have a cup of herbal brew too ! You are free to stay on and chat to anyone and leave when you like or have a stroll around the gardens.
We start promptly at 10.30am so try to be there a few minutes before that.
It's a national event which has been going since 2014 originally starting in Taranaki.
See you there tomorrow !

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
