✨ Matariki community lunch at the Onehunga community centre

✨ Come and celebrate Matariki with your community as Everybody Eats host a free lunch at the Onehunga Community Centre.

Everyone is welcome, bring your whānau, and enjoy good food and great company.

This event brings together residents, workers, and people facing hardship to sit side by side at shared tables, demonstrating how surplus food can be transformed into nutritious meals that strengthen communities rather than ending up in landfill.

Local group Tāmaki WRAP - Waste Reduction Action Project will be providing plates, cutlery, and glassware to make it a zero-waste event.

There will also be entertainment from a taonga pūoro artist.

Attendees will also have the option to contribute to a pay-it-forward meal on the day, helping to provide future meals for those in need.

🔗 Tickets for the free lunch are available to book online at bit.ly/4veGqCG

🚲 Here’s an update to the Links to GI work, with the Merton Road cycle separators expected to be completed by August 2026.

🌳 Auckland has been named a Tree City of the World — for the seventh consecutive year.

Our city’s trees are a vital part of Tāmaki Makaurau’s identity, helping create a greener, cooler, and healthier place to live.

With around 480,000 trees and plants added in 2025 and thousands more planted each year by council, mana whenua, schools, and volunteers, Auckland continues to grow its urban ngahere and strengthen its natural heritage 🌿

Auckland once again recognised as a Tree City of the World Trees are an important part of the identity of Tāmaki Makaurau and its natural heritage.
