๐Ÿฆ A Challenge for the Sweetest Tooth!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We all love a scoop (or three) of ice cream... but the owner at Little Liberty Creamery in Taranaki is taking things to a whole new level for 2026!

Her goal? 52 new flavours this year. Thatโ€™s one brand-new, experimental creation every single week! ๐Ÿคฏ

The Great Flavour Debate: We want to know what the current "Gold Standard" is for you.

What is the crรจme de la crรจme of ice cream flavours?
๐Ÿฆ The Purist: Are you a "perfect vanilla or nothing" kind of person?
๐Ÿซ The Chocoholic: The darker and chunkier the better?
๐Ÿง‚ The Salty-Sweet: Is Salted Caramel still the reigning champ?
๐ŸŒˆ The Wildcard: Are you into the experimental stuffโ€”think lavender, chilli, or charcoal?

Tell us your absolute favourite flavour in the comments below! ๐Ÿ‘‡

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weโ€™re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature โ€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
