Poll: The Nelson Squeeze ... How are you navigating rising costs? ✈️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Between the news about our Port and Airport facing "huge ramifications" from global unrest and the creeping prices at the local petrol station, it feels like getting from A to B (or flying out of the region) is becoming a major math problem.

With fuel prices and airfares set to stay high for the foreseeable future, we want to know how the Nelson community is pivoting. Are you changing your habits, or just grit-and-bearing it?

The Question:
How are you adjusting your travel and commute to beat the price hikes?

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? 🍫
