Competition, Bags and Roadworks. It's all happening at Gardenfresh Greengrocers Bishopdale.

Competition: We have 2 $40 petrol vouchers up for grabs. And it's easy peasy. Just spend $25 in-store and pop your name and phone number on the back of your receipt and place it in the glass jar at the counter. Winners will be announced on March 21st.

Bags: We are pleased to announce that Gardenfresh Greengrocers Bishopdale is supporting the Canterbury Child Cancer foundation. Starting from Thursday 7th March we will be selling carry bags and fruit/vege bags in-store. ALL money raised goes straight to the Canterbury Child Cancer foundation. We will also be having a donation box on the counter. Please have a look at the Happy Helpers Facebook page. All the bags are made by lovely volunteers.

Roadworks: At present, Leacroft Street is undergoing pipe repairs. This has resulted in Leacroft Street being a one-way road. Entrance into Leacroft Street is only accessible from Harewood Road at present. The roadworks are expected to finish at the end of March. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this may cause you. There is still parking available in front of the shops and down on Islesworth Street.

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 β€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!

Building job

Lesley from Bishopdale

I would like a pantry made in the gap the old hot water tank used to be. This involves a wall being taken out but it isn't load bearing.
Also a shelter outside over the bin area needs replacing.
I have tried Builders Crack and of the 3 only one turned up and I want more estimates.
Any recommendations of builders or handyman who are happy to at least have a look.
