'Pitch In' For New Zealand Food Network
Starting this World Food Day, the New Zealand Food Network has 12 months to see how many times we can ‘fill’ Auckland’s iconic Eden Park rugby field, with food (and essential items). That's over 100,000 meals to those in need.
Currently, 1 in 5 Kiwi kids are living in households where food runs out. The New Zealand Food Network collects surplus and donated food from businesses and redistributes it to those facing food insecurity. 100% of the donations from Pitch In will go towards feeding Kiwis in need via NZFN’s 64 nationwide recipient Food Hubs. They're calling on businesses and the public to donate either bulk food, household essentials or money to help them reach their goal. You can help by visiting pitchin.org.nz and making a donation. Together, we can get food where it’s needed most.

We start by sharing what’s on the dish team’s radar, what we’re watching, listening to and reading. Harry Butterfield puts a twist on his Nonna’s agnolotti, Malissa Fedele reminds us of the importance of fibre, and Phoebe Holden fulfils a long-held dream, sitting down with Yotam Ottolenghi. Autumn is an abundant time, we make the most with pumpkin, kūmara, cabbage, cauliflower, feijoas, apples and pears. We’re dishing up dinners for two, including a Chicken Dumpling Lasagne, alongside easy weeknight meals. We honour our mums, revisit timeless classics, and add a little baking challenge. This issue, we encourage you to slow down, to enjoy writing your shopping list, and spending time in the kitchen. Because even when life feels relentless, there’s always space to share something delicious.
