Rosemary

Hazel from Albany

Rosemary is the universal sign of remembrance. We often use it as committals at a funeral service and it leaves a beautiful fragrance on your fingers. We are very blessed to have access to several bushes as well as growing our own onsite, so are able to provide this for families at no cost.

Anyone who attempted to recycled prohibited items bubble wrap, plastic bags, ribbons, batteries, food scraps, clothing, footwear, electronics, broken glass, polystyrene and single-use coffee cups should consider themselves an addition to "Santa's Naughty List", Auckland Council said.
