This is such a brilliant idea! 🍎🥕🌿

Fruitful Neighbourhood – a simple way to connect people with surplus homegrown fruit, vegetables and herbs in their local community.

Instead of letting good produce go to waste, you can:
• Share it for free • Swap it with others • Offer it at a low cost •

I especially love that privacy has been built in. You only see produce available in your suburb, not people's addresses, and collection details are only shared after a request has been approved.

It's such a simple idea that could reduce food waste, help families, and bring neighbours together.

If you've got a productive garden (or would love access to fresh local produce), I really encourage you to check it out and sign up. Here's hoping this spreads right across New Zealand! 💚🌱

Hello everyone,
If anyone has surplus local school uniform items they no longer need, we would be incredibly grateful for your support. We currently have several families coming to the Uniform Bank looking for items, but our stock is very low at the moment.
All donations are warmly welcomed, and every piece makes a real difference — thank you so much for your continued support 💜
The HBC Community School Uniform Bank is open Thursdays and Saturdays, 10am–12pm, and is located at Manly Methodist Church.
If there is no one in the shop, just pop down to the Labour of Love op shop below and someone will take you through 😊
