PLANT SALE in Te Puna Quarry Park, this Sunday, 12 May, Mothers day

Elly from Papamoa Beach

Come and join us for the next big plant sale on Sunday 12th May: ‘Mothers’ Day at the Park’.
All proceeds go directly back into the park.
We have a large collection of pots and plant containers.

Some of the volunteers are going to help children to make posies for their Mums and there will be lovely gifts to be purchased for Mum.
Devonshire Tea featuring Shona’s famous scones with home made jam and whipped cream will be available.
Most importantly will be the plants to buy, featuring Clivias and Hoyas, and a good collection of native plants, along with others.
Obviously, everyone is welcome to come along - not just mothers.

See more and follow us on: www.facebook.com...

If you happen to have plants-in-pots, or pots or garden furniture you want to donate, we are keen to get them and pick them up on 10 or 11 May. Please contact Elly 027 371 8720.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
