It's almost spring .. and now is a really good time to cut mushroom logs and poplar poles before the trees come into leaf. These are 35 year old white poplar. Adored by bees and make great kindling too. Poplar have been used in timber and in paper manufacturing as well as furniture and more. Poplar leaves can also be used as animal fodder, to soak up water in wet areas or for erosion control. Literally break off a peice and stick it in the ground. They root very easily and grow very quickly.
We will be getting an arborist in soon to cut some for existing customers.
Logs $10 each discount for bulk numbers.
Approx 1-1.2 metres long and approx 10-15 cm diameter.
Poplar poles $8 each. At least 1-1.5 metres tall and ready to plant.
Sing out if you're interested with a om on how many you would like. Pick up wingatui.

Ōtepoti, something exciting is growing.
We’re launching a Local Food Pilot to connect households directly with local producers: fruit, veg, meat, dairy, eggs, grains, pantry goods and more.

Join the pilot and help create steady demand, fair prices, and reliable income for our growers and makers. Every Friday you’ll get an email with what’s in your box, and anything you don’t want goes straight to foodbanks or KiwiHarvest.

Let’s build a food system that’s local, resilient, and ours.

The first of my citrus trees have arrived!
A bit of an experiment... I have selected a relatively frost free site to plant some cold hardy citrus later in the year after the risk of frost has passed. Fingers crossed my preparations are fruitful!

Helping a client with some pruning in her orchard. Some good looking trees that needed a wee tidy.
