Ngongotaha Cottage Shop
Our luxurious Eco friendly Sherbet Bath sachets are totally plastic free. Give yourself a luxury bath without soap, just use a face cloth. Bath bombs must be shrink wrapped so I have stopped making them for this reason. Sheret Bath sachets are exactly the same as a bath bomb, but come in a paper packet and are not in a hard lump. One packet does one bath. There is very little clean up afterwards, as they make the bath water really soft so when you empty the bath there is little or no "bath ring". Flavours this week: Lavender, DebE, Vanilla Musk, and, Love. $3 each.
Our ingredients include: Baking Soda, Citric Acid, Oatmeal (finely ground), Jojoba and Apricot kernel oils, Kaolin Clay, Tapioca starch, and fragrance, Essential oils. (according to your choice) colour free.

This month we want to challenge Neighbourhood Supporters to come together and give generously from the heart this holiday season. With so much going on this time of year it’s easy to get caught up in the festivities and forget about others, especially those having a difficult time.

Whether it’s an elderly neighbour who lives alone to a family on your street working hard to make ends meet, reach out to someone who could use a little extra joy in their life and remind them what the holiday spirit is all about!

Other ideas include fundraising for a local charity, doing a food or toy drive, organising a ‘Secret Santa’ gift exchange on your street, giving a present to a neighbour who helped to make your 2020 better, or even host a community Christmas lunch.

Let us know how you’re giving back in your community in December by emailing: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz
