- Hovering the cursor over the weblink does not point to an IRD.GOVT.NZ website.
- Do not click as these are not from IRD. We will never advise you that you are due a tax refund through email.

Anyone who receives an email from the IRD, or someone claiming to be the IRD should get in contact with them.

Raised garden beds are ideal for the family to grow your own vegetables or other plants and there are many benefits in using them including

- extending the planting season significantly as the beds will warm faster and hold the warmth
- allowing better drainage
- as the gardener doesn’t walk on the garden bed, the soil doesn’t become compacted
- the soil will remain light and loose allowing it to hold more air helping the vegetable roots to grow with less effort
- ability to reduce the number of weeds
- if using close plant spacing your raised vegetable garden bed will create a micro-climate which will contain moisture and further discourage weeds.

Fill with compost, mulch, good soil and fertilzer mix.

If you are looking for a raised garden bed or planter box see Out of the Woods Woodshop here on Neighbourly

We are suddenly receiving a young man from Malaysia to study at the uni but we do not have a heater for his bedroom. He has limited finances and probably won't be in a position to buy one. I wouldn't need one except for this urgent need that has come up to house this young man so I prefer to not go out and buy something that I only need short term. If anybody has one that I can borrow or use for a few months then I would be very grateful. Really need heater by Wednesday this week. Thanks . Please PM me if you can help at all. Happy to pick up (and return if you wish - non smoking household)

For those that are wondering what a Gem Squash is, it's a popular vegetable in South Africa. There is many ways if cooking the Gem Squash. You can cut them in half, boil them and put butter in them, again, cut in half, scoop out the seeds, fill with them with cream corn and a bit of cheese on top then roast.

Hope you all enjoy the last few days of the school holidays. 😊
