They come from all corners of the globe, speak many different languages and represent a wide range of cultures.

The MYNTies will talk about their mission to empower young people through the projects they've set up, sharing their passion for achieving acceptance for all, and unity in diversity. Come and discuss, eat, drink, listen, question and comment.
Café Yaza, Montgomery Square, Nelson
Yaza opens for dining/drinks at 6.00pm.
Conversation 7.30-9.30pm.

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!
