Autumn Garden Tour
The Autumn Garden Tour, run by Cashmere Presbyterian Church, is on this Saturday, 2nd March.
Ranging between Cashmere and Tai Tapu, these six gardens will show how much can be achieved – whether your garden is small, large, or over 4 hectares! Gardens will be open between 11am and 4pm.
Tickets ($50 each) are available from the Church Office during these hours:
Today (Thursday) until 4pm
Friday 1st March, 9.30am to 4pm
Saturday 2nd March from 10am.
You can also purchase online at events.humanitix.com... and collect your guide brochure from the church office later.
As an added treat, we will have Cream Teas being served in the Church Hall. For just $7.50 per person you can enjoy a delicious scone, served with cream and jam and accompanied by tea, coffee or cordial. (Cream teas can be purchased even if you are not doing the garden tour.)
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?
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.
