Volunteers step up for environment
Dozens of volunteers are doing their bit to improve Devonport-Takapuna's environment. From beach clean-ups, pest and weed control to tree planting, their efforts are making a real difference in the local community. In the past 12 months alone, more than 1500 volunteers from local schools took part in beach clean-up days on the peninsula. Find out more about some of the cool things people are doing in our community.

Vertical growing boosts airflow around the plants, which helps prevent disease and makes harvesting a breeze! It also maximizses sunlight exposure, leading to healthier plants and juicier tomatoes. π±βοΈ
Perfect for small gardens, patios, or balconies - give it a try and watch your tomatoes thrive this spring! πΏ
