Poll: Have you been to Blue Spring recently?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It’s beautiful, it’s free, it’s blowing up on social media sites and drawing so many visitors it’s almost at breaking point, such is the popularity of Putāruru’s Blue Spring - Te Waihou Walkway.

Estimated to see about 45,000 visitors a year before it was re-opened mid last year, the spring’s popularity has exploded with tourists, particularly users of Instagram and TikTok.

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

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? 🍫
