✨ What began as an idea to become a Sole Trader, register a NZBN after finishing my Horticulture Studies (Landscape Design) at Unitec last year, has grown into a journey of caring for and transforming clients’ gardens with ongoing maintenance and soft landscaping.

As I prepare to travel overseas at the end of this week, I’ve been reflecting on how far things have come — and I’m so excited to continue this journey when I return. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way 💚 #SmallBusiness #GardeningJourney #OneYearInBusiness

Choice News Tuesday: 90% of new renewable energy is now cheaper than fossil fuels

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

We’ve hit a tipping point, where choosing clean energy is the smart choice, and not just because we want to reduce our carbon emissions 🌍⚡💸

Thanks to major tech improvements and mass production over the past decade, the cost of wind, solar, and other renewables has dropped fast. As a result, most new power capacity built around the world came from renewables, and every continent added more clean energy than fossil fuels.

Money — the ultimate decision-maker in politics and business — is finally lining up with climate action. A big win for the planet (and maybe our wallets?)

We hope this news brings a smile!

It’s been a little full-on at the office lately, and the Neighbourly team found ourselves chatting about something we all experience: stress.

We got talking about the power of nature — green spaces like parks, bush walks, or even just sitting under a tree, and blue spaces like the ocean, lakes, or rivers. Research agrees: being in nature really does help calm the mind. We’re lucky here in Aotearoa to have such beautiful spots right on our doorstep!

But sometimes, getting out for a walk or escaping to the beach isn’t an option. So we’re curious...

We want to know: What do you do to find a moment of calm when life gets a bit too much?
A hot cuppa? A good playlist? Staring out the window?

Let us know ... your go-to might help someone else breathe a little easier, too.
