Huge thank you to Bunnings for donating the timber for our planter box replacements, if you can help us with getting them made, please get in touch, we can use the Menzshed power tools.
Parsley and silverbeet are ready to pick.
The 3rd of September Father's Day market we will be giving away pesto made with parsley and pine nuts.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
