Do you expect the OCR drop to have an impact on you?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Politicians, along with many other New Zealanders, are breathing a sigh of relief over Wednesday’s official cash rate (OCR) drop.

Finance Minister Nicola Willis said shortly after the Reserve Bank’s official cash rate cut to 4.75% that it was “a sign we've got inflation coming under control”.

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!
