Rescued Avocados - Turlough Hill orchard, Katikati
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.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
