Poll: Are you a champion of Hamilton?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

OPINION: I’ve always sung Hamilton’s praises because A, it's my hometown and B, it’s in my professional interests to do so. However, my pitch has changed lately.

I confess, the narrative I defaulted to for decades was largely centred on Hamilton being close to other places. Now, I find myself leading with Hamilton being legitimately cool in and of itself, and 100% believing it.

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? 🍫
