Summer-field Community Picnic at Somerfield Park on Sunday 3rd December from 11.30am to 2.30pm.

Julie Tobbell from Somerfield Residents Association

We welcome families and individuals to join us at our 'Summer'-field Community picnic on Sunday 3rd December from 11.30 to 2.30pm. We aim to 'Keep it Simple Somerfield' while encouraging our community to have fun and connect together and listen to CHris Williams - local singer.
Free ice blocks, treats, music and spot prizes will be at Somerfield Park.
Due to constraints by CCC & consent needed for serving food or having any infrastructure (ie: bouncy castle/ tents) etc at a public park - we have elected to encourage a simpler version for a community event! Hopefully, if this works - more similar & informal events may be created in future!?!

Feel welcome to share this event on to others.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

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.
