The Team from Resene ColorShop Onehunga

You’ll find many fun activities and sights at the Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show but there’s one that might catch your eye with its colourful and captivating design! Mural artist Marc Spijkerbosch has painted a giant marlin mural with Resene paints as part of the Hooked on Resene competition, and if you spot it, you could be in to win!
All you have to do is find the Hooked on Resene mural, take your photo with it, share your photo to social media with a hashtag #HookedOnResene #HutchwilcoBoatShow and you have a chance to win with Resene and the Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show.

Plus, Resene staff will be by the mural at selected hours each day with giveaways for those having their photo taken!

For more information about the show and what’s on, visit The Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show online.

We’ll see you there! Show ends Sunday 18 May.

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? 🍫
