anyone growing organic cabbage and beetroot in the neighbourhood
Greetings Neighbours 🙏
I am looking for organically grown cabbage to make sauerkraut. Due to Level 3 our regular takapuna markets and other farmers markets are closed. Organic shops don't seem to have any cabbage. So asking if anyone has surplus they are willing to barter or sell. I have purple mustard greens in my garden can give you plants of those, also have calendula flower plants, mugwort (bitter medicinal herb, great as a hedge or for borders). Also have seeds of carrots, radish, variety of leafy greens to swap/give.
Also open to take what you have surplus and can't use and give some money in exchange or barter as above.
Thank you
Manasi, Beach Haven

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
