Veggie Plants Waikanae and Otaki Markets This Weekend
More heirloom tomato varieties to chose from this week and hopefully the full range ready by next weekend.
We are at Waikanae Market Saturday mornings (look out for our site along Park Road)and Otaki on Sundays - always 'weather permitting'.
Heirloom varieties are those which have stood the test of time and have superior taste (and often greater health benefits) than those commercially grown for the supermarkets. Some have been around for literally hundreds of years. Please pm me if you would like the full list.
Large well-grown plants ready to plant as soon as the ground finally warms up (they will not thrive outdoors in current conditions). $3.00 each.
A range of colours and sizes to suit every use, from salads and salsas to preserves and pickles.
Also dwarf and climbing beans, snow peas and Zucchini, including 'Partenon', an ideal early season variety as it is self-fertile and will set fruit in cooler weather when bee activity is low.
More Zucchini varieties coming next weekend plus the first Pumpkin and Kumi Kumi.
Coming up in November, we will have Capsicums, and Chillies - including some with really eye-watering heat!

Missing Playgroup Slide
Missing! Our playgroup slide! The slide belongs to the Kapiti Uniting Parish, Raumati Church at 10 Weka Road, Raumati Beach. The last time it went missing it was found at Weka Park. Have you seen it? Or if you have taken it by accident, can you please return it. The preschoolers missed it this morning. Thank you!
Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
