Strawberry Picking - $5 per kg, no entry fee, no minimum spend
Zaknich Farms (one of New Zealand's premium growers) has opened one of their farms for the first time for picking your own strawberries located at 125 Waitakere Road, Waitakere, Auckland (near Waitakere Township).
Only $5 per kg, no entry fee, no minimum spend. Season to end mid/late January.
We also highly recommend you bring your own shallow containers to pick in to, as this will be the best way to transport your berries home, as you don't want them to turn into jam from the summer heat by the time you get home. Even better, if you have chilly bins/cooler bags with ice to cool down your berries as well.
Happy Picking!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
80.3% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
19.7% No. This would be impossible in practice.
