Organic Mandarins for sale

Dee from Mount Eden

Hi Folks - Many of you around the area of Mount Eden South know my Mandarin tree, as many of you have purchased, & enjoyed fruit from my tree during previous seasons. This season, my tree has again blessed us with quite a good crop of tasty, Mandarins. That said, I am happy to sell some of the fruit off to whoever would like some. In previous seasons, demand was high, so I will be selling bags for as long as my fruit lasts. A 1 KG paper bag is $5.99, but if you would like more than 1 KG please request. The fruit in the bags range in sizes, & are a mixture of large & smaller fruits. These are beautiful easy-peel, organically grown Mandarins that have no sprays or nasty pesticides anywhere near them or my property.
The fruit are indeed a popular sweet treat for kids' lunch boxes.
Organic Mandarins are very expensive at the organic specialty stores, & even supermarket ones are expensive currently, so this is still a fair deal.

I am able to provide a Safe, From your car pick-up system, from my driveway in Balmoral. Pay Cash or Bank Transfer upon collection, please. P.M me with your name & order requirements, & when you will collect it & I will message you back with my cell number.
In & out during weekdays too Cheers.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
