What are you growing now?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Dear neighbours,

We're looking for lockdown gardening ideas! With New Zealanders stuck at home everyone is keen to get into their gardens, but they can't get to the shops to buy plants and seeds. So we want to hear from you some suggestions for crops you can start or sow from what you have on hand or useful gardening hacks using just what you have at home already without going to the shops.

It doesn't have to be a big idea - just something like growing spring onions from the base or sprouting avocado seeds to make a houseplant. Send your tips and ideas to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz and we'll publish the best ideas in NZ Gardener.

Make sure you include your full name and address - only your name and the region you live in will be published but if we use your tip we will send you a free copy of the magazine.

Just a bit of a fun poll to get you thinking.

Support my Journey

Zoeb from Pukekohe

givealittle.co.nz...

Hi, I’m Zoeb Ali (Zee), a passionate writer who dreams of using words to inspire, educate, and give back. I’ve created three blogs, each representing a vital part of my heart and purpose:

Pen by Zee: My space for sharing mindful writing, poetry, novels, and stories that inspire and connect.

Charity with Zee: A platform for highlighting fundraising campaigns I lead for causes like Auckland City Mission, Kiwi Harvest, and New Zealand Mental Health.

NZ History with Zee: Dedicated to preserving and sharing New Zealand’s rich history to educate and engage readers.

Currently, I run these blogs on free platforms, but they limit my ability to deliver the high-quality, professional experience my readers and the causes I support deserve. I’m starting this fundraiser to raise funds for paid versions of these websites.

Your donation will directly support:

Professional website designs to enhance content delivery.

Expanding reach to engage more readers and supporters.

Amplifying my charity efforts for greater community impact.

With your help, I can unlock the full potential of these blogs to inspire, educate, and make a difference. Every contribution matters, and together, we can bring this vision to life.

Thank you for supporting my journey. 💙

Warm regards,

Zee
