Aucklanders, have you voted for the GARDENA Gardener of the Year from your neighbourhood?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Trevor Crosby's efforts to save a food forest in the heart of our biggest city have put him in the running for our GARDENA Gardener of the Year award. If he gets the most votes, what would he do with the thousands of dollars worth of cool gardening gear? "It would go to our society, the Sanctuary Community Organic Garden Mahi Whenua Incorporated, for looking after the gardens and food forest. The Sanctuary is a place of cultural significance coupled with amazing biodiversity. And it’s right in the heart of Auckland."

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
