Friday Feathered Friend
This weeks contribution is from Rosa Marie and it is a beauty.
"A couple of days ago I just spent some time watching a blackbird hovering around our grapevine and helping herself to the juicy grapes. I was fascinated at how adept she was at skinning them too! I got a that shot showed a skinless grape, which I thought she would swallow, but she dropped it like a hot potato and ate the skin instead."
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.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
We're sad to announce the passing of Nicholas Boyack, our Hutt Valley reporter who has long written for The Dominion Post, The Hutt News and Upper Hutt Leader.
Change of Date for Local Garage Sale - Now on 30th November 10am - 1pm
I apologise to everyone who may have taken time to go to the community centre in Kelson looking for our local garage sale.
I got the date wrong.
I hope that you can still join us on the 30th November 2024 from 10am to 1pm at Kelson Community Centre for a morning of bargains and a chat. (Chats are optional :-)
Again, I am really sorry for the mix up. Have a lovely weekend.
