Our tomatoes are loving the warmer weather and now is the ideal time to get them into the ground. Looking forward to colourful salads? Try a mixture of the following: Black Cherry, Chocolate Sprinkles, Green Grape, White Cherry with a choice of reds; Sweet 100, Sweet Million or Rosella.
Or slice up some juicy larger toms such as Oxheart, Brandywine, Mortgage Lifter, Black Krim (currently the darling of the plant stores) or Aunt Ruby's German Green. Not only do they taste like real tomatoes should, some of them have interesting histories as well.
In addition, we will have Capsicum, Chilli, Zucchini, Pumpkin, Scallopini, a limited supply of Kumara, plus Basil, Chives and Mint. Beans available again next week.
Please note, our last weekend before Christmas will be 17/18 Dec.

The General Practice Owners Association of Aotearoa's report titled ‘‘On The Brink’’ outlines the urgent need to address pay parity for GP nurses and doctors, beef up workforce numbers and improve funding allocations for practices with the hopes that this makes heatlhcare more accessible in the community.

The Government has bought more than four hectares of vacant land at Kāpiti Coast’s Raumati Beach to build about 100 new public houses for the area.
It has spent $10 million to buy the 4.6-hectare vacant plot of land on Raumati Rd. Plans for the number and type of homes are still being developed but the Government is hoping to address the historically low levels of public housing in Kāpiti.
“This purchase will ultimately mean more families have a place to call home and demonstrates our commitment to resolving the housing challenges facing the Kāpiti Coast District,” said Housing Minister Megan Woods.
“It is clear that we need to take further steps to address housing in the region, and by tackling it now, we can prevent problems that will potentially compound and worsen in the coming years.”
The Kāpiti Coast District has a long problem of unaffordable housing. A housing stocktake by the district council earlier this year showing housing prices were skyrocketing and people were sacrificing necessities for rent.
It also found out there were not enough public housing available for a growing waitlist – demand doubled each year from 2016 to 2020.
As of June, 195 families were on the waiting list for public homes, but the number could be unrepresentative of demand as many don’t put themselves on the register.
Māori households were twice as likely to be living in social housing in the district.
The Government’s purchase follows Kāinga Ora opening public housing for the first time in two years in October by completing two new houses in Paraparaumu’s Kaitawa Cres. A further two houses were expected to be open at nearby Hinemoa St by the end of the year.
“Kāinga Ora will continue to work closely with Kāpiti District Council, local iwi and local residents on how best to make sure these homes support the local community and new residents,” Woods also said.
Kāpiti Coast mayor Janet Holborow said she welcomed any Government initiative that would help the district fix its housing issues.
“The need for a range of social housing solutions, particularly in the wake of Covid-19, far outpaces current supply locally,” she said.
“We know that housing stress in Kāpiti is widespread and negatively impacting a range of wellbeing factors like education, community connectedness and employment.”
The district council’s Housing Strategy, which was approved in May, also said it would review existing council land to see if more social housing could be built and actively work with housing providers and iwi to explore development opportunities.
