Papatoetoe South School Working Bee
So, on Tuesday 8th May, the next OKE Growing A Future Working Bee will be taking place at Papatoetoe South Primary school. We've been very fortunate to receive funds from Fonterra Grassroots Fund to cover some of the costs of the working bee and once again we'll have Bunnings on board.
We need more volunteers to help build the garden, so if you're free, please do come along. Everything kicks off at 8.45am and the garden should be all built by 3.30pm! See you there :)
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
