Bulk Buying Fruit in Auckland (getting fruit delivered)?

2016-01-26T21:56:12.000Z

Does anyone have any suggestions on buying large quantities of fruit in Auckland when you don't have a car? I have been looking at delivery options and there are awesome companies that do fruit boxes and fruit vege mix boxes but would any that you know of do boxes of just bananas for example? I am in Grey Lynn.

Hiya fruity friends!! I'm travelling New Zealand with my boyfriend driving ourselves around both islands.We have yet to find any fruit markets only supermarkets and convenience stores as we haven't been in any cities. Thank goodness for back up plans but I need fruit I feel crap!! I have only found dole bananas in one stop shops and supermarkets. (Green and stinky and I'm still waiting for them to ripen to see if their even edible :/We are off to punakaiki tmoro and then on to nelson before we head to the north island. I'm about ready to water fast as the only juice I've found is full of added everything's except I need energy for all our sight seeing and activities. Every day I have felt hungry tired and irritable :(Can anyone point me in the direction of quality fruit (in bulk) in New Zealand? Preferably near punakaiki or nelson? And any suggestions for the nth island (we are visiting most regions)Thanks in advance for any help!

Hiya, I have a copy of 80/10/10 in excellent condition that I am selling, and will throw in a copy of Grain Damage and FAQs on the Raw Food Diet along with it. I am still loving lots of raw, but not following 801010. $40 for the lot would be awesome, or if anyone wants them separately let me know xx

b12

2012-03-08T07:26:17.000Z

I have been on this raw path for about 2 years and high fruit for a year. I am quite active on this forum and so I had decided to get my bloods done as I have heard through here that B12 is such a tricky vitimin. I went to the doctor today to get my approval today. It is quite different to the blood tests that other people on this forum get as, in nz they only test for b12, maginesem and iron nothing else. I call them so that I can hear the numbers. Has anyone else in NZ done b12 tests before or done b12 injections.

He just started school for the first time in almost 4 years yesterday and I thought I had sent enough fruit with him but he took it upon himself to eat crap he is allergic to lol.

I do Indian head massage and table massage.

Indian Head Massage is a non-intrusive fully clothed massage focusing on the upper shoulders, neck, head/scalp, and face. It's wonderful for relieving muscular tension, joint stiffness, aiding sleep, psychological uplift, relieving headaches, creating a sense of calm and relaxation, plus much more.

At the moment I'm only offering head massage. I provide a 30min treatment and consultation for $45 plus $5 for travel within the three major highways.

is the north coast sub-tropical?

2011-01-31T23:10:13.000Z

Can you find cheap produce? Any good farmers markets, wild growing, tropical fruits? Sunny and hot November - February? Nice wwoof farms, hostels, work exchanges, seasonal jobs and what's required if staying 3-6 months besides visa and passport?
