Veggie Plants Waikanae and Otaki Markets This Weekend
Our seedlings are loving the warmth and rain we have been getting (not so much the wind!). They've really taken off and are in prime condition for planting out now.
Tomatoes from our later sowing are ready now. A good range of sizes and colours available, from tiny to the very large and plenty in between.
All our curcubits are racing away, so this weekend we are specialling kumi kumi, gherkins and crown pumpkin at $3 or two for $5.
We also have basil, zucchini, cucumber dwarf and climbing beans, peppers and chillis.
Scarlet runner beans will be ready from next week. Kumara by mid-December.
For those who missed out earlier, we have a limited supply of some favourite heirloom tomatoes such as Black Krim, Indigo Rose and Isle of Capri, as well as a range of cherry tomatoes, which should be ready in two weeks. Text me on 027 220 1355 for further information.

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)
.
