Gift a Tree

Kowhai from Birkdale

With only $10 a tree, your gift is helping our local reserves, their biodiversity and will continue to grow for many years to come!

Your way of gifting also eliminates any unnecessary wrapping, packaging and transportation. THANK YOU!

The native tree you are gifting is grown by us and will be looked after by our volunteers at the nursery until we plant it on your behalf in the new year during planting season. Planting will take place in Eskdale Reserve on Auckland’s North, and we'll make sure you're invited to join us. Please note that planting season starts in May.

The person receiving your gift will be sent an email with your personalised message and a Gift Certificate. Their Gift Certificate will also be sent to you, so that you can print it if you wish.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
