We process event waste from community events in Whangarei. We're after some manure, horse/cow/chicken etc to help heat up our compost and get it processing faster. We're based in the avenues, so central Whangarei.

Ongoing support for the Dargaville Community Garden. Located at Kumarani Creative Centre
A garden to promote wellness, community connections and to be a learning / growing space for any who require it.
Our goal is to educate and connect rather than high production. This is a permaculture garden based on the core ethics of 'Earth Care' 'People Care' and 'Fair Share'. We encourage everyone to start a garden at home.
There will be monthly open days including workshops, seed and crop swaping and information sharing.
You can also be part of the regular volunteer team taking care of the gardens.

We have two community gardens in Kaeo and are always grateful for help.
Both gardens are producing food and there is always some goodies to take home.
Our gardens:
Mangamanihi road - our gardening time is Fridays from 3pm til 5pm (this has also a food forest surrounding with loads of fruit trees!)
Pupuke- te huia marae road- we garden on Saturdats from 10am til 12pm
Both gardens are quite different and have a huge potential to feed us (and you) and the community!

Doesn't have to be an experienced gardener... But we urgently need a couple of helping hands in our gardens.
You'll have seen our gardens each time you see the Bush School facebook ads or the SerenidipiDay photos or Transition Town's Māra Tui photos, so you'll know how beautiful our farm and gardens are.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, email or best is a txt or phone call.
Cheers,
Marty

The Kerikeri Crop Swap is on the 2nd and 4th Saturday each month at Māra Tui at Kerikeri Organic, 3pm-4:30pm. It's a wonderful gathering of generous people keen to share from their gardens, it's open to anyone and operates as a koha economy - we all walk away with fruit, vegetables and plants depending what's been shared. Our facilitators need an extra pair of hands or two to help with the set up and to tidy up afterwards. If you are already a crop swapper or are keen to check it out. Come along and offer to lend a hand. Roughly 2 hours twice a month. There are also opportunities to do some gardening in exchange for Timebank hours. Check out my other listings for more details and get in touch!
