Berhampore Fruit and Vege Co-op - three pick up points every Tuesday.

Administration Team from Island Bay Presbyterian Church

The fresh food co-op in Berhampore is a response to the fact that many people, affording transport to a market, on top of the cost of produce, is challenging.

The fresh food co-op in Berhampore is a response to the fact that many people, affording transport to a market, on top of the cost of produce, is challenging.

$12/week for a fresh pack of fruit and veges! Please register, then order and pre-pay online by 5pm the Thursday prior. Contact Bruce Hamill on 027 275 6041.

There are three pick-up points each Tuesday: Granville Flats (559 Adelaide Rd) from 11.30 -1pm; Centennial Flats Community Centre (493 Adelaide Rd) 1.30-3pm; and Rintoul St Flats Community Room (263 Rintoul St) 4-6pm.

The Berhampore co-op is a branch of the Eastern Suburbs Fruit and Vege Co-op based in St Aidan’s Anglican Church, which is, in turn, a hub for a joint venture between Wesley Community Action, Regional Public Health and M.E. Transport Ltd.

Every so often the Co-op offers regular and free 8-week cooking courses (“Kai Confidence”). It is very popular! It aims to help those lacking confidence in cooking to build creativity in using the weekly order. Food is provided and everyone eats together afterwards.

Let’s take a #LookInsideThePipes

The Team from Wellington Water

On the left, you’ll see a typical pipe taking wastewater to be treated at one of four treatment plants. But a few metres down, in the same pipe, there’s a blockage forming from fat being poured down drains, and sanitary products and wet wipes being flushed down the toilet!

On the left, you’ll see a typical pipe taking wastewater to be treated at one of four treatment plants. But a few metres down, in the same pipe, there’s a blockage forming from fat being poured down drains, and sanitary products and wet wipes being flushed down the toilet!

These nasty blockages are a nightmare for the wastewater network, and our crew has to clear them out, sometimes by hand.

The only way to stop them? Only flush the 3 P’s (poo, pee and toilet paper), and don’t let fats and oils down the sink 💩🚽🧻

Our home in Epuni, The ReMakery provides opportunity for employment development, skills development, place of learning, place of manufacturing from waste reincarnation, returning all profits to development of local food projects across the Hutt Valley.

We have 11 urban farms growing food that is crafted into gorgeous meals for the community to purchase. For each meal sold another is gifted to a child at one of our 4 partner schools.

We have an amazing, but small group of passionate dedicated staff supported by a large pool of wonderful volunteers. We desperately need funding support to ensure we can continue to employ our staff to ensure this community regeneration work can continue and grow.

Inclusive Communities – July 1st to 31st 🤝

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

This month we’re celebrating the diverse array of people who call New Zealand home. Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, nationalities, ages, orientations and even genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.

There’s many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck where each attendee brings a dish from a country of their choice to coordinating a fundraiser that benefits refugees or our elderly there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their native language or ensuring local footpaths are accessible!

Don’t forget this month also coincides with Women’s Refugee Awareness Month and International Day of Friendship on July 30th - a United Nations day that promotes the role that friendship plays in promoting peace in many cultures.

Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re making your community more inclusive this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
