Get ready for a blooming good time with friends!
Join us at our DIY Flower Press workshop, just in time to celebrate Flora Fest. We'll provide the upcycled MDF and recycled Resene paint - you bring your creativity!

Saturday 8th Nov | 1pm-3pm | @ Waiuku Zero Waste

We're on a mission to empower people to repair and reuse, gaining new skills along the way. In this workshop you'll operate a drill and sander, and add your own flare with left over paints.
No tool experience needed, so grab your pals and book now for only $14 (+booking fee).

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Poll: Do you think Auckland Council is doing enough to help households safely dispose of hard-to-recycle waste?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

How do we Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle the hard stuff?
We’re talking tyres, paint, and agricultural chemicals — the items that aren’t always easy to dispose of.

Recently featured in The Post, this innovative business is showing how waste can be transformed into opportunity, turning what we throw away into products.

But this raises a bigger question: how do we get our waste to the right people — the ones doing the right things with it?
♻️ Do you think Auckland Council is doing enough to help households safely dispose of hard-to-recycle waste and get it back into the supply chain?

We’d love to hear your thoughts.
