Vege only orders start this week!
This week the $10 Gold and $15 Value orders will have the same contents-pumpkin, potatoes, broccoli, apples, oranges and kiwifruit. The Value will have more volume. Similarly for the $26.50 Gourmet and $36.50 Whanau Fiesta-contents are pumpkin, potatoes, broccoli, mushrooms, beans, onions, kale, apples, oranges, kiwifruit and bananas but the Whanau boxes will have more volume. The new $15 vegetable only order will have pumpkin, broccoli, potatoes, mushrooms, beans, onions and kale. We are excited to be able to offer this as a number of customers have asked for this over the last few years
The deal of the week is 5 small avocado for $2.
The website has had some issues this week but hopefully they will be resolved shortly. Please ensure you order by noon this Tuesday to ensure your order will be available at Thursday pick up.
There will be a further 3 lucky draws for Food Together bags this week. Last week's winners were Brigid, Odine and Ruth who all got their bags last Thursday.
Saturday 7 May Food Together Awapuni will have a stall at the St Matthews Plant and Fun Fair (8.30am-12.30). We will have all size orders on display and we will do a lucky draw at the end of the fair for each order to be given away. So if you have friends or family who are curious about us send them along to say Hi and enter in the draw to win one of these different sized orders. The Fair itself is a great event with lots of plants for sale plus other stalls and fun activities for children.
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
