Whangarei Quarry Gardens

Alison Neighbourly Lead from Kamo

Due to covid 19 we have had to officially close the gates at Whangarei Quarry Gardens.

Thank you to all of our volunteers who have been working so hard this summer. It has been a really big season, with the drought keeping our gardening team busy watering. Thankfully we have a lake, so no shortage of water. Well now our volunteers, like everyone else, can take time to rest and recover. They have certainly earned it, and I know they will be itching to get back into it now that the rain has come and planting season is upon us.
Please stay safe everyone. We look forward to seeing you back in the Gardens soon.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
