Has anyone got little self seeded Camelia plants under their established bushes? Ideally pink or red ones? I'd love to come by and dig some up for transplanting to our place. I have plenty of the white camelia sinensis (tea plant) but would love to add some color. Many thanks!

A local Timebank family lost everything in a house fire that happened recently. For now, their needs are non-perishable food items and fresh garden produce. They are a family of 4 with two young children. You can drop items to the Eco Centre in Kaitaia and local Coordinator Caryl will deliver these to the family. Anything is appreciated!

We still need compost helpers at CBEC!! We would love you to come help us, we take paper towels and foodwaste and create wonderful compost that we give to kindis, but we need help. Volunteers will be welcome to go home with a bag of compost or three!! Ideally we would make this a regular once a month event, please let us know what days you are free.

We (KaitaiaCycle) are in need of spray free lawn clippings for our compost to balance with more nitrogen. Drop off to either CBEC or by the compost bins near drop in surf shop. We can provide empty fadges/wool bales for filing and sort a swap system at either or both places. This would be fantastic if it was a weekly/fortnightly arrangement. Contact Waikarare if you can help 021 162 8071.

Is there anyone here, that is profient in holding conversations in NZSL?
I,Michelle became Hard of Hearing in late 2022 & think it’s handy to learn Sign Language.
I am self teaching myself at the moment via the NZSL Dictionary App on the Mobile.
So I only know a few words so far… but it’s hard to remember them as I have no one to learn from & bounce off on.
To string learnt words together and have proper conversations.
I’d be happy to use Facebook Messenger, Zoom or Skype for Video calling
if your out of Kaitaia town radius.
Or meet up for coffee in Kaitaia town and teach me!

I am in need of a house rental ASAP.
The property I'm in is very unsafe and have to leave ASAP.
Mostly looking for a furnished property must be in town Kaitaia or very close to town for work purposes. I have tried everything available with real estate with no luck, so thought going to try on here as well.
I am very house proud, sole parent, have great references, looking for preferably long term, considering all options even boarding at this stage.

Would love some seaweed or fish frames for the compost and gardens. Access to the beach isn't always easy but happy to collect from around Kaitaia areas.
