The OMG shed has got robbed twice in the past two weeks, leaving us without crucial farming tools and the urgent need for higher security.
Auckland
Kia ora koutou,
Over the past two weeks we have been robbed not once but twice. The thieves came well prepared and broke into our shed and ransacked it, taking with them ; powertools, spades, wheelbarrows, specialist tools, gardening gloves, as well as $500 cash and a range of personal items including RM Williams dress boots as well as crates of produce from the garden!
We are very disheartened with this and unfortunately they have taken lots of items that are crucial to our production which we don't have the cash flow to buy back. We also need to up the security on the site ASAP by installing security cameras, automatic sensor lights, and a superior locking system for the shed, to make sure that if the thieves come back sooner they won't cause the same amount of damage.
We did not have contents insurance and we hope that the community can help raise the funds we need to buy back the crucial tools that were stolen, as well as help us increase the level of security on the site so that this wont happen again!
OMG - Organic Market Garden is a For the Love of Bees model urban farm based in Uptown Auckland, NZ. It has become a beacon for growing radical hope together, through food.
Funds will be used to replace crucial infrastructure that was stolen including; Wheelbarrows, AEG Spray pack and batteries, Gloves, Spades, Shovels, Secateurs, Trowels etc as well as increasing the farm security with sensor lights and security cameras.
