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!

Some Choice News!
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!
