Neighbours Day Roadshow - we were in your neighbourhood!
Day 6! We started leg two, flying into wellington where we held our first workshop at the magical Innermost Gardens in Mt Victoria, a great, fun bunch, with some amazing ideas. We headed to Paekakariki for lunch and zoomed on to Palmerston North to meet with some local communities like Awesome Awapuni residents who put together the Raleigh street reserve, and the Roslyn REACH crew putting on wacky water days. Thanks so much to Julia from Palmerston North City Council for showing us these amazing neighbours!
Amazing day yesterday, we were out on the road. We started in Palmerston North, at Hancock house for a wonderful workshop. Next we zoomed on to Masterton, for another amazing workshop. Such amazing people!

Stolen Pot plants
Last week on my return from a few days away a green 33cm shrub tub of petunias was missing from the front of my garage,
Today a 39cm terracotta tub of orange pansies and a 33cm shrub of pansies was mmissing from alongise my driveway in Fairs Road.
I have reported these losses to the police.
Should anyone notice that neighbours suddenly have pots or tubs of flowers, either call the police or ask them to return them. They know where they got them.
Lest we forget...
