Herbal Balm Workshop with Jane Wrigglesworth

You'll learn to make a soothing herbal balm for cuts, scrapes, and minor skin irritations. Using healing herbs like calendula, plantain, and chamomile, we'll guide you through the process of infusing oils, blending natural beeswax (or a vegan alternative), and creating a gentle, nourishing salve. Perfect for families, gardeners, and anyone looking to incorporate natural remedies into their daily routine.

✨ You'll leave with your own tin of balm and the confidence to make more at home! ✨

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

I think we’ve all seen the traffic notices and headlines about the new IKEA by now!

So here’s the question: why do we get so excited when a new store opens? Convenience? Curiosity? A reason for a weekend outing? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
