$5 and $10 Freshly Harvested Salads - Available Tuesdays and Fridays - Glen Innes

Monique Pot from Tamaki Urban Market Garden

We have an abundance of salad leaves at present! Would you like a box for $5 or $10 ready for your Christmas gatherings?
Locally and organically grown they include a mix or leaves, edible flowers and herbs.
A $5 salad will give you an ice cream container full of our yummy salad mix. A $10 salad will give you a tray full of our yummy salad mix.

The price helps pay for the farmer who nurtures the plants and maintains the project as well as supporting our giving of food to those in need. Special thanks to Zealandia for some donations of plants and our fabulous volunteers helping plant and water!

Available Fridays and Tuesdayโ€™s for the rest of the year! Email tamakiurbanmarketgarden@gmail.com to arrange

โš ๏ธ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. โš ๏ธ

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

๐Ÿ‘‰ The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50ยฐC in less than 15 minutes.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
๐Ÿ‘‰ This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
๐Ÿ‘‰ It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you โค๏ธ
