CHEVIOT VILLAGE MARKET ON THIS WEEKEND, 17 & 18 MAY

Janine from Hurunui District

The weather's getting wintry, but the Cheviot Village Market always provide a warm and cosy welcome in the Knox Community Centre Hall behind Cheviot's main road Stone Church. Quality stalls include locally made wooden homewares, in-shell and shelled organic walnuts, pickles and chutneys, baking, diamond art creations, beautifully made crocheted toys and other crafts by Karimar Krafts of Cheviot, books, antiques and collectables, art prints, jewellery, clothing, DVDs and lots more. 10am to 2pm this weekend (17 and 18 May). Free entry, plenty of parking close by and a great cafe just across the road and other cafes just a short stroll away. We look forward to welcoming you.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

Poll: Have we lost our "Clean & Green" edge? 🌏

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press just released an article on the proposed plan to pump sewage into the sea, and it’s got us thinking. We’ve always been proud of our environment, but is the "Clean and Green" reputation still earned?

What’s your take? Are we doing enough to look after our backyard? Is it time for a new slogan? 💬
