PLANT SALE at TE PUNA QUARRY PARK on 13 Oct

Elly from Papamoa Beach

Te Puna Quarry Park is run by volunteers and maintained partly by donations and proceeds of plant sales. For our next plant sale on 13 Oct., we have a selection of plants, pots, and goodies, while vegetable seedlings are growing. We like to get more stuff to sell, so we welcome donations of plants (garden & house plants), decorative pots, garden furniture and other garden stuff. Please think of us when you are spring-cleaning your garden, and throwing out useable plants, or making cuttings of your house plants. We aim to pick up (but it depends on availability of our volunteers). Please contact us via email (tepunaquarrypark@gmail.com) or a text to Elly (027-371 8720). Thank you!!

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

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.
