Neighbour's Day: The Great Plant Swap
Hi neighbours,
The annual Neighbour's Day Aotearoa is running this week until March 30.
Held to encourage people to get their neighbours better, this year's theme is The Great Plant Swap.
The first 200 people to register their events will receive a packet of seeds donated by Kings Seeds.
Neighbours have held barbecues, community movie nights and beach clean-ups in previous years to mark Neighbour's Day Aotearoa.
You can join one or several events by clicking the red buttons on the website below.

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!
