The Maunu Garden Project

Bron from Tikipunga

Kia ora whanau,
The Maunu Garden Project is a not for profit organisation who grows and donates fresh spray-free produce to our local community and community foodbanks in Whangarei.

We are a small group of volunteers, passionate about getting healthy produce out into our community to those who need it the most. Through local foodbanks and other organisations we are able to deliver seasonable produce most weeks of the year, which is incredible!

We need your help! Awapuni Nurseries have kindly offered to do a 2 week promotion, giving us a special code to pass on to you, so when you put through those spring planting orders we will get 20% of the proceeds (less postage). This starts on Monday 9th September and you MUST use the code which we will post on FB Mon morn. Please go along to our Facebook page for more info, or if you would like to read a bit more about what we do or maybe apply to volunteer that would be awesome! We also have a special giveaway going at the moment so please make sure to enter :-)

Yours in growing goodness..

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
