Halloween in the Hutt - Trick or Treat Map/Participation

Gemma from Avalon

It's nearly that time of year and after last year's success I've decided to make the Halloween in the Hutt google map again to help those who create full Halloween home displays, homes that accept 'Trick or Treaters' in general, and/or organisations that host community based Halloween events make themselves known.

If you would like to participate in having your organisation or home on the map, please complete this form forms.gle...

This form is kept in confidence by your Lower Hutt community member Gemma Macmillan and is not shared publicly. Only your address and Halloween details will be made public when the google map goes live for community use. Important dates listed on the form.

Important information:
You will be contacted via email to confirm your participation closer to the date, after which the map is updated with locations and details relevant to Halloween. You will receive the link to the 'Halloween in the Hutt' google map shortly after.

On the 27th of October the map is shared publicly on the community social pages and Neighbourly (this is to account for the houses that have large displays) and is then made private again on the 1st November.

Looking forward to the spooks ahead and thanks in advance for participating!

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.

John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
