Veggie Plants Waikanae and Otaki Markets This WeekendLast chance for summer/autumn crops
Last chance for summer/autumn crops:
Red, yellow and purple Capsicum
Cucumbers, several different varieties (the ones we planted this week have doubled in size already - they are loving these conditions)
Spring onions
Zucchini and Kumi Kumi
Special on our remaining Kumara: $2.00 each or 8 for $10. Happy to provide growing tips if you haven't tried these before.
And think PESTO: We have green Genoese Basil, plus Purple Ruffles, Thai Queen and Aristotle (Greek basil). Basil is a great companion plant for tomatoes, as are our Marigolds for keeping the bugs away.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
