Happy New Year to all our Locals!
Have you resolved to be mindful of your eating habits this year?
An excellent way to enjoy guilt-free sugar is to use raw honey as a sweetener.
Raw Honey comes straight from the honeycomb. It has been strained only enough to remove small bits of debris (pollen lumps, beeswax and bee bits!) but still contains plenty of pollen, propolis and anti-oxidants with all the nutrients and goodies that the bees put into it.
Processed honey is clearer than raw honey and doesn't crystallise. Raw honey can crystallise over time but you can easily fix that by warming your honey jar in water (not too hot) until the crystals melt. Some people actually prefer the crystally texture.
Bring your jar into Hive World at 16 Wall Place,, Kenepuru to fill with your choice of honey.

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
