Hibiscus Coast Community Op Shop Supports HEARTBEATS
Next Tuesday, 9th May, the Hibiscus Coast Community House Opportunity Shop is donating all revenues for that day, from sales of 'preloved' items, to Heartbeats support group for heart event survivors on the Hibiscus Coast.
Heartbeats started in Orewa in 2019 and now has four chapters operating across Auckland. We are a charity and volunteer organisation with no paid staff.
Drop in to the Op Shop next Tuesday and pick up one or two items that you've been thinking about for a while.
It's like getting something for yourself while making a donation to a worthy cause.
For more information about Heartbeats call Trent at 0220 606 199

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
