Mushroom Mate
Mushroom Mate is an exciting way of starting your very own mushroom farm. This farm uses recyclable and sustainable materials, such as used coffee grounds and recycled buckets.
The Oyster mushrooms that we offer enjoys a terrific reputation for being one of the most forgiving, easiest to cultivate, richly nutritious and medically supportive mushroom.
Mushroom Mate strives to encourage Kiwi families, schools and local communities to choose to grow endemic/native mushrooms variety rather than imported species.
Available mushrooms include the grey-coloured Pleurotus Pulmonarius, commonly known as the Indian Oyster, Italian Oyster, Phoenix Mushroom, or the Lung Oyster. Exquisite and flavourful, it can be served raw or cooked lightly. Simply fry with butter garlic, add to a salad or any favourite stir-fry and soup dishes.
Also, Pleurotus Parsonsiae, the white oyster mushroom, is closely related to the pink flamingo oyster mushrooms. It has a meaty texture and makes it an excellent meat substitute.

Neal’s Handmade Pens
Neal Sadgrove from Neal’s Handmade Pens first started woodturning and making pens 3 years ago and only recently started selling.
Pens are all made to exact specifications and are finished in a hard-wearing high gloss, high temp shellac to enhance the beautiful grains. These pens are made to last a lifetime!
Neal prefers to use indigenous New Zealand timber, such as Kauri, Totora, Matai, Rata, Pohutukawa, Towai, Hinau, Black Maire, Kowai, Mahoe, Beech, but occasionally he also uses imported wood.
The pens use a regular screw-in ball refill that can be purchased almost anywhere, but if desired, Neal can have either blue or black available as well.
These pens make a fantastic present or a small indulgence.

Sammy’s Artworks
I am 23 and from the beautiful Hibiscus Coast in Auckland. I absolutely love animals and nature and I’ve almost finished my Bachelor of Science in Ecology! I mainly draw New Zealand birds, they’re so beautiful and unique. I love to incorporate species I have learned about from my degree into my artwork.
