The Golden Bay Weekly

Woven Social... Coming soon!

If you’re seeing this, you’ve found Mohua’s most exciting secret.

You can think of Woven as the digital lovechild of Facebook, the village marketplace, and the community noticeboard—(minus Mark Zuckerberg’s creepy spying). Born in Golden Bay, Woven is built to amplify local stories, grow local economies, and deepen community connections. It’s the online home Mohua deserves.

Woven Social is Mohua’s new community platform—a vibrant digital basket filled with local stories, businesses, events, and grassroots projects. It’s social media without the endless scroll, local commerce without the middle man, and community without boundaries.

Connect & Share – Tell your story, find your people, and share updates without fighting algorithms.

Sell & Swap – Showcase your products and services locally, easily, and fee-free.

Discover & Host Events – From gigs to yoga, markets to mahi days—promote or find local happenings effortlessly.

Uplift Community Projects – Gather supporters, raise funds, and celebrate local impact in one connected place.

Because stronger communities start with deeper connections. We believe money spent here should stay here, local heroes deserve louder voices, and our environment thrives when we trade close to home. It’s about weaving together people, purpose, place, and planet into something powerful, resilient, and uniquely Golden Bay.

Businesses & Makers – Grow your customer base, amplify your story, and highlight your community impact.

Locals & Explorers – Easily find products, services, stories, and events you actually care about.

Changemakers & Organisers – Mobilise your community, gain visibility, and turn ideas into action.

Businesses & Organisations – Add your business details below, and we’ll automatically set up your listing, ready to launch.

Locals & Individuals – Pop your email in the form, and we’ll ping you the second the platform goes live. You’ll be among the first to explore, connect, and weave new threads in our local story.

About Us
