Kumquats for jam / marmalade
We have a bumper crop of kumquats that need to be made into jam or marmalade. Really easy to do as they don't need to be peeled (skin is edible).
They are too bitter to eat from the tree so please don't take them as a substitute for mandarins or oranges.
Probably have enough for 100 litres of kumquats
Recipe is 1 part kumquat / 2 parts water / 2.5 parts sugar, so there's enough to make over 500 litres!
Soak for 8 hours then boil for an hour.
Private message if interested.
Cheers

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.
