Support small food stores by buying from them!

Hannah from Point Chevalier

Supermarkets have had almost ALL our business for an entire month so I'm calling for shopping at small food outlets as much as possible, especially once we go down to level 3 - for what may take you an hour more in time per week will make a massive difference for these small businesses.

Some of these places are already doing online delivery - please support them and give them some love or find alternatives in your area. Add your suggestions below :)

Here are some of my favourites in the Point Chevalier/Grey Lynn/Westmere areas:

1.Point Chevalier Organic Wines:

2. Westmere Butchery: www.westmerebutchery.co.nz...

3. Anastasis Coffee Roasters:

4. Daily Bread:

5. Kelmarna Gardens (fresh veggies)

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
