Tawa Saturday Lions Market
This Saturday 21 April the Tawa Lions Market at Outlet City will be open from 9am to 2pm, featuring our regular Fruit and Vegetable vendor along with our own Lions stall with eggs and honey. There may well be other stalls on the day depending on the weather.
We will have honey stocks of Helen's creamed Clover, Bush and Manuka/Bush, along with liquid (runny) Meadow and Manuka/Bush. Our 600g pots of Manuka/Bush come in at $3.00 per 100g and our 900g pots (all other stock) come in at $1.76 per 100g - great value when compared to supermarket prices and such good quality that Helen puts her phone number on every label.
Tawa Lions gratefully acknowledges the support of Outlet City in providing the venue for our Market.
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.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

The Hikoi on Tuesday 19th
I copied this from a Facebook page: The expected route of the hīkoi on Tuesday is from Takapuwahia Maree in Esldon towards Porirua and along Kenepuru Drive to Tawa, then up Middleton Road to Johnsonville, down Ngaraunga George and along the old Hutt Road to Wellington. They are anticipating significant congestion on the roads between 06.00am and 12.30pm.
