Do you know someone sharing the veggies they've grown with their neighbours? Perhaps locals restoring a park in the area to bring back birds, or a group of neighbours doing a great job in their community garden. Nominate them today, and tell us why they deserve to be this year's Ryman Healthcare Gardener of the Year.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said there were promising signs that the Government was getting on top of the virus, but a short extension was recommended by director-general of health Ashley Bloomfield.
On Sunday night Auckland would move down to level 2. The rest of the country would stay at level 2.
Ardern said the rest of the country needed to stay at an elevated alert level to mitigate the risk of cases leaving Auckland when interregional travel resumed. Click here to read more.

Police say they received a report that the grounds had been damaged sometime between Friday night and Sunday morning.
Images of the park show wheel marks from a vehicle criss-crossing a significant portion of the new sand -based turf.
Mayor Wayne Guppy says the turf had only been in used for the last six weeks following an 18 month upgrade which was part of the first stage of the Maidstone Park Sports Hub project. Funding for the second stage of the development has been fast-tracked by a $12m injection from the central government's shovel ready funding which will allow for the building of new clubrooms and other infrastructure at the site.
"Someone knows what happened out there. People who do this sort of thing can't help but boast about it, so we are asking anyone who knows anything about it to come forward."
A police spokeswoman said the incident was awaiting to be signed to an investigating officer.
Hospitality outlets want the Government to spend $27 million on meal discounts to prevent widespread closures and job losses.
The Restaurant Association has launched a petition calling for subsidies of up to $20 per person for meals served at restaurants, cafes and bars.

This pic was taken by Lisa Adamson this morning. The pod looks like it has since moved across the harbour to Petone.
