On-demand garden waste collection

Sabine from Avondale

There's a new on-demand garden waste service starting around the country. I find garden waste collections at a set time hugely inconvenient, especially with the change of seasons. I just called them to ask when this service will be available in Avondale and the answer was: They have an app that you can download and registe yrour interest by providing your post code and your email address. They then monitor the amount of interest and provide the service to the area when there are enough people registered. Makes sense! By the way, this is not an ad, I'm in no way connected to the provider, but I really, really, really want this to be available in Avondale etc. so if you think like me, please download the app and register :) enviroearth.co.nz...

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?
