Hawkes Bay Competition Winner
Congratulations to Tracie who won the Silky Oak Gift basket of Chocolate and Pantry goodies. Silky Oak was part of a combined Hawkes Bay Tourism and The Hits Radio with Megan and Adam promo.
We are all working as a team to inspire locals to not only support the local community but get to know what is in you own backyard. It is surprising how much Hawkes bay has to offer.
Photos are not the basket won, but to give an idea of what we can do at Silky Oak

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.
