Heirloom Tomato Plants and Zucchini
We will be at Waikanae Market Saturday mornings (look out for our signage along Park Road)and Otaki on Sundays with the first selection from our extensive range of over 50 heirloom tomato varieties. More becoming available each week. Please pm me if you would like the full list of available varieties or if you would like to purchase.
Heirloom varieties are those which have stood the test of time and have superior taste (and often greater health benefits) than those commercially grown for the supermarkets. Some have been around for literally hundreds of years.
Large well-grown plants ready to plant as soon as the ground finally warms up. $3.00 each.
A range of colours and sizes to suit every use, from salads and salsas to preserves and pickles.
Also Zucchini, including 'Partenon', an ideal early season variety as it is self fertile and will set fruit in cooler weather when bee activity is low.
And, for those who have been asking: Sweet Peas are here!
🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

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!
