Drinking or giving Ata Rangi’s Crimson Pinot supports Project Crimson and cleverly combines two of my personal great loves into one activity.
Ata Rangi makes some of the best red wine I’ve ever tasted. As a former bar manager, I’ve tasted a lot of wine – and I love Ata Rangi.
Help support Project Crimson‘s efforts to maintain, protect and restore stands of the NZ pohutukawa and it’s relative the beautiful rata by sipping damned fine NZ wine. Your friends and family will love you for it.
Always looking for new and novel ways to garden and eat, I’m thrilled to have found these great kits fromMushroom Gourmet. Complete with really good instructions and everything you need to be growing these little blighters. I’ll let you know in about 2 weeks just how fabulous this kit is. Yum, I can’t wait! I’m super excited at being able to cross something else off my weekly shopping list.
Beautiful botanical and bird prints on teatowels or t-shirts would make a wonderful gift for the plant lover in your life. This very talented Kiwi lass prints strong images of NZ native plants and birds to make striking pieces. I think she’s choice!
This is so much better then having piles of plastic plants pots cluttering the garden shed. Make individual seedling pots from recycled newspapers when you need them with this great little set.
I know they have a weird name but these big, bright flexible tubs are so damned useful and good-looking that I’ll take three, please. Not only can a Gubba tubtrug carry everything around the garden but when the day is over you can fill it with ice and use it as an attractive champagne or beer bucket.
It comes in lots of beautiful colours, so you can’t lose them, and a range of sizes so you’ll want to collect the set.
It’s the time of year for list-making – lists for Christmas, lists for 2008, lists for 2009, lists, lists, lists. And of course it’s time for gifts, gifts, gifts. So my natural inclination has been to combine the two and get all festive. We’ll be looking at one a day in an attempt to solve those pre-Christmas shopping blues. So if you’re stuck for Christmas present ideas, there are some fantastic gift ideas coming up for the gardener or plant-lover in your life. Hope you love them as much as we do.
