Welcome to the second of this series of articles dedicated to helping you to downsize, declutter and rightsize your life, brought to you by Ryman Healthcare in conjunction with organising and decluttering expert Peter Walsh.

This time we are tackling one of the more challenging aspects of downsizing – what to do with gifts and heirlooms. Whether you need to free up space in your own home or are helping someone else to downsize, this is a task that can feel daunting and emotionally charged.

Although it might be tempting to box everything up and hide it away to deal with another day, that just passes the problem down the road to your future self or to your family.

Fortunately, there are ways to downsize gifts and heirlooms that honour and remember the past whilst enabling you to rightsize your life for the present day.

Last chance for tomatoes, kumara and beans. Seedlings have been growing so fast that they need to go in the ground NOW.
Still a good choice of tomatoes available - some pictured below. We've been planting ours over the past couple of weeks and the growth spurt they put on once in the ground is just amazing. These plants will keep cropping until the first frosts.
Both purple and orange kumara still available - but stocks are getting low.
Also dwarf and climbing round beans plus scarlet runners.
Four different types of basil - great companion plants for tomatoes as well as pesto. Or plant some marigolds with you tomatoes for colour and to protect them against caterpillars.
Capsicum available next week - red, orange, yellow and purple varieties plus manzano chillies - quite hot enough for most tastes!
