Kia ora Kāpiti, join us for our upcoming Long-term Plan (LTP) drop-in sessions. Our LTP consultation document lays out the mahi we plan to do over the next 10 years and how we’ll pay for it. In this you'll find what we think are some bold but essential proposals to actively reduce debt and build resilience, without compromising services.

Heirloom Tomatoes, Zucchini and Cucumber Plants at Waikanae and Otaki Markets
Rain, wind and cold - just what these veggies don't like! However, better times are on the way and you can get a head start if you have a warm sheltered spot to nurture these seedings. They are coming along well in spite of the conditions.
We'll be at Waikanae tomorrow morning OR come see us at the massive Market and Camping Expo at Otaki on Sunday from 10.00am to 4.00pm. There will be a lot going on, plenty of entertainment and foodtrucks for sustenance, plus the usual array of quality stalls.
So came and check us out. Even if you are not ready to plant just yet, we can offer advice on varieties and cultivation. If you would like the full ;list of tomato varieties available, please PM me.
