Farmers

Reinhard from Mapua

Found this on facebook the other day and thought it is a good comment:

Well........the planes ✈️ have stopped, cars 🚗 have stopped, the world as a whole has pretty much stopped and the Co2 levels have dropped!
Yet the farmers haven’t stopped. They’re still getting up to milk the cows 🐮 , the lambing 🐑 sheds are in full swing, the cattle are still being fed, the crops 🌱 are being planted, yet the CO2 has dropped.
Maybe agriculture isn’t quite as bad as the media have been making out .... maybe the world 🌎 isn’t going to end because of our livestock and farming, maybe, just maybe, agriculture is actually going to be the thing to save everyone when this world needs feeding and we cannot import avacados, coconut milk and mangoes from South America or Asia ....
So buy local, eat local, buy Kiwi, eat fresh...🐄🐷🐑

Some Choice News!

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!
