UPDATE: Hey all keen gardeners... my daughter will be back out bagging horse poo while the sun shines this afternoon. Message me if you'd like to order. Be in quick while stocks last!! (only kidding... unlimited supply ;-) )

My teenage daughter is looking for ways to earn more pocket money. Her options are quite limited at the moment but one thing she does have is an unlimited supply of horse poo. And what better time to dig it into your garden than now, during a lockdown? She will collect and bag to fill orders. Contactless payment and pick up at Brentwood Ave, Mt Eden. If you live in Mt Eden, Eden Terrace or Kingsland we may be able to drop off (using gloves and masks) on your porch while on our way to and from the horse.
Please message me on 021 751220 to order.
