Good news all you bibliophiles, the sale which was postponed from May will now be on 29 and 30 October 2022. We will do our usual advertising nearer the time but this is just a heads up for everyone to note in your diaries. Keep an eye on our website also for any updates in the meantime. www.bookfest.org.nz...
We will also have smaller sale at the Trentham Racecourse Boot Sale on 30 July plus be at the Upper Hutt Spring Festival on 10 September. Hopefully we will be at the racecourse Night Market on 18 November as well.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
