Join Us for an Exciting Women’s Clothing Swap Event!
We are thrilled to invite you to our upcoming Kumeu Clothing Swap & Shop event, an initiative aimed at fostering community spirit, sustainability, and giving back. This event is a fantastic opportunity to refresh your wardrobe while contributing to a great cause. Here’s everything you need to know:
Fundraising Goal: $20,000
Our goal for this event is to raise $20,000 to support Parent Aid North West. With your participation and generosity, we believe we can reach and even surpass this target. These funds will go directly towards providing home help visits to young families in need in the North West community.
Silent Auction and Raffle
Our silent auction and raffle are shaping up to be spectacular! Thanks to our generous donors, we have an array of amazing items up for grabs. From exclusive gift baskets and vouchers to unique experiences and high-end products, there’s something for everyone. Be sure to participate and bid on your favourite items on the drop off days and at the event, knowing that all proceeds go towards our fundraising goal.
Huge $5 Clothing Sale
Starting at 12pm, we’ll be opening our doors to the public for a massive $5 Clothing Sale. This is an incredible chance to purchase quality second-hand women’s clothing at unbeatable prices. It’s a win-win: you get to update your wardrobe with fabulous finds while also shopping sustainably.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

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.
