fb.me...
Always wanted to try archery? Thinking about taking up archery but you'd like a shoot before you commit to a course?
Then come along to our Have A Go Day. $5 (cash or mobile bank transfer) gets you six arrows and a coach to show you what to do with them. No booking necessary, just turn up between 9.30 and 12. It's a pretty popular event so there may be a wait time for your turn but it's worth it!!
NB wear closed toe shoes and bring extra cash for a sausage straight off the BBQ.
Also NB - you can find us in Cornwall Park, at the foot of Maungakiekie. If entering from Manukau Road, turn right at the Sorrento and drive to the carpark on the left hand side. We're in the field right there, you'll see the flags.
If you're entering from Greenlane Road, come down Twin Oaks Drive and turn right into the only car park you see. We're in the field right there, you'll have seen the flags as you approach anyway.
What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

Calling All Puzzle Masters! Can You Solve This?
When John was six years old he hammered a nail into his favorite tree to mark his height.
Ten years later at age sixteen, John returned to see how much higher the nail was.
If the tree grew by five centimetres each year, how much higher would the nail be?
