Veggie Plants Waikanae and Otaki Markets This Weekend

Val from Otaki District

All the gardening blogs seem to be featuring tomatoes this month! Which is a good thing from our perspective! Great to see many of the writers recommending the same heirloom varieties that we have been growing and selling for years.
So, this weekend we still have a good selection of tomatoes as well as zucchini, cucumber (including the New Zealand heirloom, Port Albert), gherkins, dwarf and climbing beans, pumpkins and the first basil of the season.
Early pepper and chilli plants should be ready by next week but be aware that any cold snap will set these back and reduce yield unless you have a warm sheltered spot or greenhouse.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
