Lovely, luscious local pears
Don’t miss out! We’ll only be open for another week or so. Follow the signs at the ends of Crofton Rd in Harewood to our very rustic pear stall right at the end of Chilvers Way.
2kg bags of pears for $6, 5kg bags are $20, and 4kg bags of 'seconds & windfalls' just $10.
These are Bon Chretien pears- the best ones for cooking and bottling, and excellent for eating fresh too.
Cheers, Shirley and Dave
Poll: What should happen to the cathedral?
In August, restoration of the Christ Church Cathedral was put on hold. Church leaders have no idea when work might restart.
Last year, the Government declined to provide further funding beyond $25 million, and the church, who had raised $24m in donations and contributed $49m including insurance, said further public support will be required to find the revenue required.
What do you think the next steps should be for the cathedral?

14.3% Keep waiting for more funding

34.5% Continue build, but with compromises
-
48.8% Demolish it!
