Poll: Did you go to Homegrown?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Punters came from far and wide to experience Kiwi music at Homegrown on Saturday.
The sun shone down on Claudelands for the festival as it made its return in a far bigger format after 18 years in Wellington.

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? 🍫
