Rescued Avocados - Turlough Hill orchard, Katikati

Gaylene from Northland

The rescue has been a success, says Wellington teens, Reef and Kyra.

The avos - ‘ugly’, ground-kissed or those clever enough to hide from the pickers, are on the road back to Wellington on the back of a Ute.

They will be available from tomorrow, 14 Dec until sold out.

Price is:
$2 each (the best)
$1.50 each (the babes)
$35 for 20 (for lovers or those with room in the fridge - cool fruit to slow ripening)
$55 for 40 (for serious lovers and those wanting to gift onto others)

Bulk buyers (20 or 40) can collect from 20 Farm Road, Northland. PM me to arrange collection day/time.
All others can be brought from the Ute, watch out for them on Karori Road, Glenmore St and Miramar.

Cash only. No Eftpos, sorry.

Price: $2

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
