Veggie Plants Waikanae Market this Saturday

Val from Otaki District

Garlic, spring onions, and celery
The weather has been against garlic planters: too much moisture. Cloves have rotted in the ground. We have well established plants ready to go into your garden beds and ramp away. The price of garlic has gone through the roof, so secure your supply now.
Also celery, for a continuous supply, pick what you need, when you need it, not because you have a great lump festering in your vegie drawer.
And spring onions that are ready when you want them.
We'll be at the market Saturday unless the weather is too, too awful. Look for us partway down Park Avenue.
Looking for a bit of brightness in your flower beds or some pots on the doorstep? We all need a bit of cheering up. We have large potted colour polyanthus, violas, pansies and daisies that will brighten up your garden beds, pots or just fill a few gaps and flower through until late spring.
See you Saturday, weather permitting!!!

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
