Join us for a night of creativity, colour, and a touch of indulgence! Our Sip & Paint evening is the perfect mix of art and relaxation — no experience needed, just bring your sense of fun (and your favourite drink!).

So pour yourself a glass, pick up a brush, and let’s make something beautiful — one sip at a time!

National doesn't care enough about the issue of New Zealand companies and same for correcting Labours forcing of innequalities Doctors getting qualified so hence some future Doctors WILL not be up to standard, just only capitalists. So can't vote National. Can't vote Labour for another their even worse reason because Chris Hopkins said NZ should get used to living in (even more) debt. Unbelievable

We have presented concerts in Waikanae for several years. If you haven't heard us you will most likely be surprised at how different our sound is from recorders that were taught in schools. Our instruments range from the very deep, mellow contrabass to descant. Our programme spans classical music from some of the earliest (medieval) that was written to two 20th century tangoes. It includes very beautiful Baroque music and a suite of arrangements of three eastern European folk melodies.

Being healthy equals living life fully.
Living life fully equals joy and fulfillment.
Being healthy means looking after yourself in all those ways that you know of - nutritious food, exercise, sunshine, sleep, relaxation.
Being healthy also means looking after yourself emotionally and mentally and spiritually.
Some of these last 3 tend to get overlooked.
Having sessions with me can help with these.
Together we inquire into the emotions that are stored in your body, we inquire into the thinking structures that you have and I guide you deeper inside yourseelf to experience the truth of you.
Then you can be really healthy. You can live life fully and be fulfilled.

But things seem to be looking up for the week ahead.
We have a good range of good strong heirloom Tomatoes ready to go now, plus more in the pipeline. A great range of colours and sizes suitable for all culinary purposes and growing conditions. Plus smaller growing varieties suitable for container or vegie pod cultivation.
This will be the last week for Zucchini until mid/late November so get in quick if you want an early crop.
We have 12 different varieties (list available on request), including two newcomers:
GREEN LIGHTENING: new to the market this year.
Unusual shape and vivid green stripe make it stand out from the crowd. Suitable for stuffing.
Early ripening and excellent yield and flavour.
and
RAMPICANTE: Italian heirloom - said to have been cultivated from the wild by Italian gardeners several centuries ago.
Growth habit: rampant! Ideal for vertical gardening!
Produces long curvey fruit that can be harvested young like a regular Zucchini or left to mature for winter storage.
