PLANT SALE in Te Puna Quarry Park, this Sunday, 12 May, Mothers day

Elly from Papamoa Beach

Come and join us for the next big plant sale on Sunday 12th May: ‘Mothers’ Day at the Park’.
All proceeds go directly back into the park.
We have a large collection of pots and plant containers.

Some of the volunteers are going to help children to make posies for their Mums and there will be lovely gifts to be purchased for Mum.
Devonshire Tea featuring Shona’s famous scones with home made jam and whipped cream will be available.
Most importantly will be the plants to buy, featuring Clivias and Hoyas, and a good collection of native plants, along with others.
Obviously, everyone is welcome to come along - not just mothers.

See more and follow us on: www.facebook.com...

If you happen to have plants-in-pots, or pots or garden furniture you want to donate, we are keen to get them and pick them up on 10 or 11 May. Please contact Elly 027 371 8720.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.

John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!

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.
