WANTED - USED LEAD BATTERIES

Jenny from Rangiora

Once again I am running a fundraiser for the Canterbury Region of the NZ Williams Syndrome Association.  Each region in NZ tries to raise money for their biannual camp in Whanganui, January 2023.  We haven't been able to hold the camp for 2 years now, due to covid, but we now have 4 days planned of wonderful learning, challenges, talent shows and connection.

So it's time once again to have a clean out of your sheds & garages for any Used Lead Batteries you have been meaning to take to the recycling depo.  Cars, trucks, tractors, motorbikes, lawnmowers, solar etc etc.  If you contact me on 0274655995 to arrange pickup. Please talk to your friends and families about this too, that would be much appreciated,  Jenny McClintock.

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!
