Have your say - Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2023–29 (WMMP)
💚 We’ve joined forces with the rest of our region to say “Less Waste. Greater Place”. We’d love your views on the draft Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2023–29 (WMMP) for our region, and our local action plan for Kāpiti, on how to better manage waste. Our aim is to send less to landfill, and that means using our precious resources more efficiently and reducing the generation of greenhouse gas emissions from waste.
Have your say on the future of waste in our region before 1 September 👉🏼 www.lesswastegreaterplace.co.nz...

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Paper Shredding
I will be doing a lot of paper shredding over the next few weeks. Is there anybody who would like the shredded paper. I don't know if you can use it for hamsters and other pets, maybe it could go in your compost.
Just let me know if you want some.
