Pest Free Kaipātiki Tool Shed - A Christmas Special

The Team from Pest Free Kaipātiki Restoration Society (Inc.)

This is the last opportunity to return and borrow tools for the year! If you have empty or nearly empty gel bottles please return them. The next Tool Shed event will not be back until January 22nd, 2022.

We have the usual advice, tools, gloves, herbicides, sterigene for kauri protection, traps and more to borrow, so come on down anytime between 9-12:30pm.

Located underneath the Birkenhead Senior Citizens Hall - look for the flag.

Thank you to everyone who has picked up traps or tools to control invasive pest plants and predators - it is making a huge difference to Kaipātiki.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
