Tui Feeder - Unstained
Made from tanalised timber and exterior ply this unique liquid feeder is sure to attract plenty of tuis to your garden. Attach it to a pole or post or to avoid predators hang from a tree branch.
Contained within the wooden housing is a 1.5 litre bottle of sugared water that feeds into the tray below. It's a simple exercise to remove this unit for refilling. Four sight holes means checking the remaining liquid level is just a simple glance.
During winter the tuis have less natural food available so now is a great time to place one of these feeders in your garden.
Currently with the many tuis in our garden the feeder is replenished every week. During spring, summer and autumn it will be less often as the tuis have access to other naturally occurring sources of food.
Feeder comes with operating instructions which includes mixing ratios for sugared water.

Walthan Butternut - 20 Seeds
Prolific producer with a wonderful sweet orange flesh. Tend to to be uniform in size with a smooth outer skin plus they don't take up lots of space in your garden as some pumpkins can.
New Zealand Post - $0.50
Whangaparaoa Crown Pumpkin Seed - 20 Seeds
I grow these pumpkins in my garden and find that they look after themselves, you just need to control where they grow to as they can take over. Heavy croppers and good keepers.
A lovely rich sweet pumpkin ideal for roasting and when used for soup or pumpkin pie a real taste sensation.
If you have spare space in your garden you won't regret planting these.

Worm Farm
Make better use of your kitchen and vegetable garden waste with a "Just Add Worms" worm farm.
Kick that waste disposal and kerbside collection into touch and get some efficient tiger worms on the job.
The end result will be a valuable organic product that reduces reliance on our landfills and saves you money (stop spending money on expensive garden fertilisers).
As a avid gardener I use worm juice on all my veggies and my friends and family are amazed when they see the results. I have to use a ladder to tie up some of my tomato plants (as shown pg 8 March 2010 edition of NZ Gardener magazine) In addition worm juice and castings are great for all indoor plants as they are odourless and easy to use.
Having your own worm farm is environmentally friendly, hassle free and fun.
If you're not into gardening you can sell the juice and castings to some one who is.
A "Just Add Worms" worm farm consists of:
* Two green working bins ... houses the worms ... this is where they work their magic!(worm castings created here)
* Black base bin with tap for collection of liquid fertiliser (worm juice)
* Mould or pot ... this allows worms that find themselves in the collector bin a way back into first level working bin.
* Two ventilated dividers for the working bins.
* One ventilated lid for the top working bin
* 250 gsm of industrious tiger worms.
* Bedding mixture and instructions.
Approx dimensions:
Each bin ... 42cm x 45cm.
Depth of bin ... 20cm
Height of bins when stacked ... 60cm
The bins are manufactured in New Zealand from recycled plastic, black components 100%, green approx 75%.
Pickup is welcome from Alfriston area of Auckland.
Otherwise I’ll happily post one to you.
PLEASE NOTE: Worms are only posted on Mondays to avoid them being held up over the weekend in transit.
