Get ready for the first-ever Light-up Vintage Tractor & Truck Parade in Greytown!. It's a new part of the Festival of Christmas. It's going to be a tractor-tastic event that will have the little (and big) people grinning from ear to ear. Our rural community are lighting up their tractors with 15 vehicles all lit up, making their way down Main St this Saturday night.
Make sure you gather the family and be along Hastwell Street or Main Street (between Hastwell and Jellicoe Street) at 6pm to see the show!

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.
Te Koru Kai
What is Te Koru Kai?
Te Koru Kai is a food scrap exchange initiative created to support our Eastside whΔnau and whenua. Here's how it works:
β‘οΈ You provide us with your food scraps.
β‘οΈ In return, we give you fresh eggs.
β‘οΈ Eventually, this will expand to include vegetables and meat!
This is a kaupapa designed specifically for the Eastside community to promote sustainability, reduce waste, and strengthen connections.
At the moment, Te Koru Kai is full, but Iβve started a waiting list. If youβd like to join, I can add your name, and youβll be contacted when spaces open up.
