Summer Garden Open Days Saturday and Sunday 4th and 5th March 202310.30am - 4pm

Carolyn from Tawa

You are welcome to come and explore our garden this weekend. As it will the the last opening for this Summer we may open both days (depending on the weather) so please keep an eye out on this page. We have 633m2 of themed garden areas on a sloping east facing terraced property. If you are wanting ideas for what you can do with your garden you will hopefully find some inspiration here. I will be on hand to answer any questions you may have.
We have steps and sloping paths but most people seem to manage them OK. There are plenty of seats so take your time and enjoy sitting in the different areas to absorb their special ambience. Different themes in the garden rooms encompass French, Asian, Subtropical, Mediterannean, topiary and meadow styles. We also grow a lot of herbs, vegetables, fruits and dahlias.
It is too expensive to advertise so please tell your friends in the Wellington region who may be interested. All welcome. Entry by donation please.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
