Finally a fine weekend coming up!
Our tomatoes are loving the warmer weather and now is the ideal time to get them into the ground. Looking forward to colourful salads? Try a mixture of the following: Black Cherry, Chocolate Sprinkles, Green Grape, White Cherry with a choice of reds; Sweet 100, Sweet Million or Rosella.
Or slice up some juicy larger toms such as Oxheart, Brandywine, Mortgage Lifter, Black Krim (currently the darling of the plant stores) or Aunt Ruby's German Green. Not only do they taste like real tomatoes should, some of them have interesting histories as well.
In addition, we will have Capsicum, Chilli, Zucchini, Pumpkin, Scallopini, a limited supply of Kumara, plus Basil, Chives and Mint. Beans available again next week.
Please note, our last weekend before Christmas will be 17/18 Dec.

A report has shown that clinics around New Zealand are understaffed, with GP's being overworked and underpaid. And for everyday kiwis, healthcare and emergency healthcare is simply not accessible.

The General Practice Owners Association of Aotearoa's report titled ‘‘On The Brink’’ outlines the urgent need to address pay parity for GP nurses and doctors, beef up workforce numbers and improve funding allocations for practices with the hopes that this makes heatlhcare more accessible in the community.
