What are your thoughts on the fast food plans for Tīrau?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Independent commissioners have approved plans for Burger King and Starbucks to open up in Tīrau, despite strong public opposition and concerns about the town’s character and traffic on State Highway 1.

The decision, released to the public on Monday, will see a single-storey Starbucks café and Burger King restaurant built at 69A Main Road, each with drive-through facilities and a shared car park.

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? 🍫
