request for top soil
The Hataitai community gardens have just got in the 2 huge planter boxes with thanks from Bunnings Trade New Zealand and the Wellington Menzshed, but I have used the yearly budget buying grapes, raspberries, blackberries and many vegetables, so if I could get donations for topsoil (any spare soil, potting mix or composit you have) and/or strawberry plants you would have my many thanks. I have grown many edible plants ready to go into the planter boxes.
All produce at the community gardens is free to pick, take what you need.
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)
.
