MOU between Kaipātiki Local Board & Pest Free Kaipātiki
Last week the Kaipātiki Local Board hosted the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between Pest Free Kaipātiki and Auckland Council, and I was proud to sign it on behalf of the Kaipātiki Local Board. Congratulations to Jo Knight, chair of Pest Free Kaipātiki, and everyone who has worked so hard over a number of years to get to this point, including Richard Hursthouse, Keith Salmon and David Roberts.
The MOU is the formalisation of what has already proven to be a fruitful and collaborative partnership, and will enable Council to better support Pest Free Kaipātiki with the enormous task of eradicating pest plants and predators from our bush reserves and preventing the spread of kauri dieback. This fantastic work could not be completed without this huge group of dedicated volunteers. Thankyou to everyone involved!

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!
