Agee and Mason Preserving Jars
One of our regular donors has passed her large collection of new/unused preserving jars on to us. We are offering them to our supporters for a suggested koha donation of $7 for the 1 x litre jars and $5 for the .5 litre jars - we are happy to offer a discount if buying more than a couple. They come with metal screw on bands and seals and are in pristine condition. Any funds raised will go to a community effort near where our donor lives.
Please email us at wellypickfruit@gmail.com or call/text 022 596 9577 if you are keen to support this. Pickup is from Ngaio.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?

🌍✈️ Why It's Plane Sense to Challenge the Flight Path ✈️🌍
Wellington Airport announced some 'Gamer Changer' information in the news. New infrastructure could mean bigger and louder planes over our suburbs, affecting more residents. Massive aircraft like the Boeing 777X and Airbus A350-900, are twice as loud as the jet flights we experience today. Using AI, we’ve created a visual comparison of these new planes—take a moment to check it out.
💡 What can we do? We need to act now to revert the flight path back over the harbour, rather than turning left after takeoff and climbing over the slopes of our peak terrain - Mount Kaukau. But to do that, we need your support.
📢 We’re raising $25K by 2025, and we could use your help to reach our goal. Help us take action.
