Gribblehirst Community Gardens looking for two hand trolleys
Hi all
Maybe you have one or two of these sitting in your garage and you don’t really need them?
We have a project for the community garden at the start of the new year and need two functional hand trolleys.
That would be fantastic as we haven’t yet got any funding.
If you can’t interact with this post but would like to donate 1-2 trolleys please write a short email to coordinator@ghub.nz
We can come and pick up.
Photos show hand trolley we need and what their end use will be after undergoing a bit of reworking by a talented maker, (a proper garden trolley out of two hand trolleys)
Thx

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.

Some Choice News!
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!
