The PICKERS
🌿 The PICKERS! 🌿
The PICKERS is an incredible community initiative that collects excess fruit, vegetables, and flowers from local gardens, repurposing and redistributing them to those in need.
Every small act makes a huge difference - are you able to donate? 🌱💚
If you have any surplus produce or know someone who does, we’d love to hear from you! Help us make a positive impact on the Hibiscus Coast by reducing waste and giving back to our community. 🥕🍊🌻
Get involved or donate today – because together, we can grow something beautiful.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
