Free container-grown plants for planting in Autumn
We have re-activated our little cottage nursery that supplied Council restoration projects and home gardens from about 2004-2006. Hundreds of native seeds fall and grow, even in our own little garden and gravel driveway, so we have been potting them up in recycled pots with roughly-composted wood chip mulch so our garden restoration clients can have free plants for planting season (or earlier if they have a loose soil and are prepared to water them…but Autumn is much easier!)
We are now offering 10-20 plants (depending on size), in a limited range of species – this year we concentrated on kawakawa, karamu, nikau and Carex – free with every 10 hours of gardening or habitat restoration, while stocks last.
We will look after the plants for those customers till Autumn.
Here’s what they look like at present:
STUDENT JOB....cash in back pocket..

Mike and I have about 90 years experience between us. There is nothing we can't do around your home. Do you have sticking windows and doors, Aluminium and Timber, catches and handles broken or stuck? Garage Doors included.
Letterboxes a bit wobbly or broken, numbers missing, we still need to find you even if the Postie has gone AWOL.
Kitchen and Bathroom need some maintenance, doors water damaged, hinges not working properly, handles missing or broken. Bench tops tired or want to change the look? Gib installation, plastering and painting. Or a complete remodel.
Weather board replacement or tidying up, painting outside too.
Concrete paths and drive a bit cracked and broken, we can sort these problems also. oil stains an eyesore.
Decks, replace or repair, new stairs and balustrades including railings.
This is only a small list if our expertise, if it needs fixing or changing we have the ability.
