Mountains to Moana - GWRC Event

Community Engagement Advisor from Greater Wellington Regional Council

The Wairarapa is the place to be this weekend! If you are looking for a free fun family event join us at the historic Waiorongomai Station THIS Saturday from 10am-1pm. It is up to you as to how much exploring you want to do.

We have on offer:
- A local author reading a native fish story reading for children
- Learn more about stream wildlife on a short guided walk
- A short guided native tree and wetland walk
- Nature photography workshop

There’ll be a lunchtime BBQ but you could also bring a picnic to enjoy sheltered amongst the trees.

Waiorongomai Station is on the Western Lake Road, south of Featherston.

A beautiful spot not to be missed! See you there!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
