Friends of the Farm: how to build a community

From Afternoons, 1:19 pm on 2 April 2025

In the Auckland suburb of Māngere Bridge they are all about fostering connections to build a sense of community.

Local working bees, workshops and family friendly events bring people together to teach, learn, get to know one another and give back.
