Working with people is one of the great joys of being a CAB volunteer. When volunteers are asked what they love most about being involved with CAB, is that no two days are the same.
CAB NP is currently looking for more volunteers. Volunteers are fully supported with initial and ongoing learning as they come up to speed with the challenges and pleasures of being a volunteer. You will also be supported by a huge range of resources including a referral database listing 35,000 organisations.
Its great to be actively involved in our community, using our knowledge and experience to help people and having a bit of a laugh together sometimes as well.
if you are interested, please call 06 7589542 or email newplymouth@cab.org.nz. Alternatively, call in at 32 Leach street to say hello. We would love to hear from you.
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.
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.

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?
