Kia ora Whangarei (WANTING)
We are Food Rescue Northland, what we do is we rescue any food that is not good enough to sell due to dents in cans, veges are not pretty etc and we collect these to give back to our community agencies who provide food to individuals and families that are need of food. We also accept any food donated from individuals that may have an overflow of vegetables or fruits, or goods that are not being used in the pantry. We rescue food before it hits the landfill or pig farms. If you have any food you would like to donate we have two drop off areas, Whare Awhina Community Trust House, 155 Kamo Road, Kensington or the Food Rescue Warehouse, 1 Woods Road, Whangarei (The carpark of the old Chipmunks). We can also pick up. If you have a fruit tree with excess fruit we are happy to pick these and take away.
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
