Eat your own raspberries all year round!

Richard from Rangiora

Grow a bumper crop every year and freeze the surplus for winter!

These raspberries are amazing!

Let’s connect - I will:
- show you my two domestic raspberry patches

- explain how to grow them effectively

- sell (or exchange with) you enough plants to get you started (for half what you’ll pay in the shops)

- explain how to avoid root spread

- give you a 2-page handout with instructions

Planting then now/soon will give them an awesome head start on next season (don’t wait for spring!)

These are fantastic fruiters (red raspberries - Heritage, Cluther & Lewis)

Bartering?
Can’t afford to buy? I’m open to swapping plants for other produce including relish, jam, whatever you make.

Send me a message and we'll swap phone numbers.

PS I also have some exceptional thornless blackberries.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
