Herbs Workshop with Jane Wrigglesworth

Join us for a hands-on workshop where you’ll learn how to make a soothing herbal balm for cuts, scrapes, and minor skin irritations. Using healing herbs like calendula, plantain, and chamomile, you'll be guided through the process of infusing oils, blending natural beeswax (or a vegan alternative), and creating a nourishing salve.

Take home your own tin of balm and the skills to make more! Perfect for families, gardeners, and anyone keen on natural remedies.

This workshop is led by Jane Wrigglesworth, medical herbalist and author of The Everyday Herbalist.

• Saturday 22 February

Aucklanders, we want to know: How are you feeling about the current property market?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

New Zealand homeowners are now more likely to sell at a loss than at any time since 2013, and if you’re in Auckland or Wellington, the odds are even higher.

How are you feeling about the current property market?

If you’re keen to dive into the details, Deborah Morris breaks down all the latest insights.
