We are teaming up with the phenomenal chefs at Everybody Eats to provide a special dinner experience entirely from locally grown or salvaged food. The meal will feature produce harvested that very day from Tāmaki Urban Market Garden and prepared by top-class professional chef, Tristan from Everybody Eats.
Tāmaki Urban Market Garden has been operating for two years, producing local regeneratively grown kai and sharing our love of soil and our environment with our local community. We need your support to keep going with this work - because we know it's important to our community and the planet!
We'll be sharing a short film that gives more insight into why and how we do what we do, and highlighting the produce we are already growing with three delicious courses of scrumptious gourmet food.
Expect an evening of community connection, deliciousness, and hope for the future of food in Glen Innes and Eastern Bays suburbs.
Tickets can be purchased here events.humanitix.com...
Venue to be confirmed at one of the amazing EveryBody eats venues in either Glen Innes or Onehunga.
We would love for you to join us!

Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
