4 chooks looking for a new home.

Jacqui from Owhiro Bay

We have 4 girls who need a new home. They are healthy and friendly and about 2.5 years old. They are still laying, we get over a dozen a week although may slow down a bit over the darker months ahead.

The only reason they need a new home is because they've got a bit naughty and lay in the bush. Fine if there's only one bush, but we have several acres of it for them to roam in and we have to lock them up if we want the eggs, which isn't fair on them.

So if you want some lovely girls to share your garden with, with the added benefit of delicious free range eggs, let me know.
Asking $30 for all 4, but home is more important.

Negotiable

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

💨 Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It’s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! 🌧️ We’ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.

In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!

The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! ☀️

Any local hidden spots or activities you’d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! 👇

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?
