Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:
• swap seeds with a neighbour
• gift a plant you've grown to a neighbour
• take some flowers to a neighbour
• organise a produce swap
• share garden tips or recipes for food in season
• create community gardens or berm pollinator pathways
• host an inclusive garden-themed working bee
• a friendly neighbourhood BBQ with homegrown ingredients
The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.

For a few weeks, the Historic Kōpū Bridge will be one of the most photographed heritage structures in the country. Throughout this period, the bridge is open to everyone: cyclists, walkers, joggers, birdwatchers… or if you have some tales to tell about the old days on the bridge, come along and share them with the volunteers.
