This report describes some common spiders and insects found in New Zealand gardens. The author, an expert on spiders, considers the spiders and insects in his garden to be as exciting as wild animals in a jungle.

The Green Team enter a competition that involves growing vegetables and using them to cook a meal, but the weather turns out to be a big problem.
