Want to recognise your favourite local business?

Prospa

We all love a cheeky grin and a wave from our local grocer, or a toot from the delivery driver, or a coffee order that’s ready before we arrive. And especially over the last year, it’s been the small businesses in our communities that have almost made things seem ‘normal’.

DAYLIGHT ROBBERY!

Linda from Henderson

New Zealand Post quoted me $136.70 to send a very small parcel to China. (Mobile phone size).
Does anyone else think this price is outrageous?
I felt like asking if they were flying it by private jet.

For a long time, New Zealand wine exports have been dominated by Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir with small quantities of Chardonnay and Bordeaux blends plus more.

During New Zealand Wine Week (7-11 February 2022), WSET gathered together a panel of three expert educators to discuss emerging wine trends and grape varieties along with the theme of sustainable winegrowing certification (SWNZ) and organics in the New Zealand wine industry.

Here is a part of Celia’s presentation on the grape varieties, regions and the importance of NZ Winegrower’s policy of sustainable wine growing, first introduced in 1995 and the increasing numbers of organic certified wineries.

Despite the rain and the gloomy weather, it did not stop whānau from celebrating Waitangi Day this year at ZaberriWorld.

Located in Riverhead ZaberriWorld is a berry farm where visitors can pick their own strawberries, raspberries and blackberries.

ZaberriWorld also offers a variety of fun outdoor activities including an adventure inflatable, trampolines, a free train ride and ice cream.

Boman Zakeri, ZaberriWorld owner, was 15 when he started working in the industry. Even as a young man, he had a vision to own his very own berry farm one day.

Zakeri said: “Waitangi is an important event we should never forget our history. It is important for our younger generation to learn more about it.”

While many Waitangi Day events were cancelled, whānau and friends who came to ZaberriWorld had the chance to see farm animals from Little Bo Peep’s Mobile Home up close.

Jessica Fernandez, who went with her mum and dad, said: “It was a really good family experience.”

Samantha Carruthers, manager of ZaberriWorld, said: “It was great to see so many happy kids who had gumboots on and rain jackets. Even with a bit of drizzle, it was good to see people get out trying to enjoy there weekend.”

Kia ora neighbours, residents of West Auckland say they are once again being tortured by the sound of Celine Dion blasting though loudspeakers while they try to sleep.

Residents of Te Atatū Peninsula say over the summer, up to 50 cars park up at the Concourse in nearby Henderson, where they blast music throughout the night.

While a range of music can be heard coming from the speakers attached to the cars, two hit songs by Celine Dion seem to be favourites – My Heart Will Go On and The Power of Love.

Have you been affected by the siren battlers?
