During the 2020 lockdown, she gave away over 140kg in fruit from her home orchard. This year, she didn’t have fruit to swap but her vegetable garden was packed with winter crops. “I had masses of broccoli, cauliflower, kale, silverbeet and French sorrel. So I gave out a lot of parcels of those to anyone I knew who needed it.”
Dear neighbours,
Alexandria Te Ripeka "Pearl" Lindsay (Te Āti Awa o Taranaki) started gardening to grow her own food -- and now she's growing food for her community too.
Dear neighbours,
Get to know Darfield gardener Bronwyn Adams-Hooper, who runs a horticulture programme for the 18- to 21-year-olds serving time in the youth unit at Christchurch Men’s Prison. With her help, they've been growing veges that win awards at their local A&P show.
Caitlin chose a career path that works with her passion for building stock cars.

The council will publicly notify its proposal early next month. If adopted, it will result in changes to the way the council is elected and structured from the next local elections in 2022.
The key changes in the proposal include:
- The Selwyn Central ward would be replaced by a smaller Rolleston ward established, which would have three councillors rather than the current four, with all the other wards retaining their current number of councillors.
- West Melton would move from the current Selwyn Central ward to the Malvern Ward
- The area between Burnham and Rolleston would move from the current Selwyn Central Ward to the Ellesmere Ward.
- The Malvern Community Board would be retained with five members, elected from the existing subdivisions of Hawkins (2) and Tawera (1), and a new subdivision covering West Melton (2).
Since Selwyn's last review, its population has grown rapidly but unevenly across the district, meaning changes were required to the existing ward boundaries to ensure an even spread of representation.

Many older people already feel isolated and lonely and the Covid-19 pandemic has only added to that, the charity says.
"The art of sending a card to someone at Christmas seems to have been lost over the years, we are encouraging people to revive the tradition of sending someone a nice card in the mail," Voices of Hope co-founder Genevieve Mora says.
"This could be a family member, neighbour, someone you know of or mail it to us, and we can make sure it gets out to someone in need of a bit of cheer. Hopefully this will help someone feel a bit less lonely this Christmas,."
Cards can be sent to: PO Box 90202, Victoria Street West, Auckland, 1142.
The deadline for sending cards is November 11. Find out more here.
