water restrictions
The Wellington Hutt Valley area is now under water restrictions. This has even made front page news in the “post” recently and national news. What people don’t seem to realise this has been going on for years. At the start of spring each year, water restrictions are put in place It's not a new thing.
It has nothing to do with the level of Te Marua lakes, Hutt river flow, or Waiwhetu Aquifer levels. It's been a wet winter. Ask the management of Wellington Regional Council why it is in place they won't be able to justify it. It's just something they do each year. Other districts that really do have water shortages in summer put restrictions on in late February. Never before December
It's sad that management seems to think this is the only way to manage water supply. Oh, I forgot water meters will also do it ! Then they don't have to worry about leaks
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!
