What do you make of Volare's growth story?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

In a move that marks a significant milestone in its journey, Volare, one of the country’s fastest-growing artisan bakeries, has shifted into a sprawling new factory with the capacity to quadruple production.

What began as a two-person dream in a converted garage has flourished into a thriving business employing nearly 150 people and fuelling a bread-loving community across Waikato and beyond.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
