Dust off the masks for the annual parade - Carnivale back on for October
Nelson council's community services committee has approved $100,000 to fund this year's Mask Parade after Covid disrupted the planning stages. The Nelson Arts Festival Trust is organising an impromptu 'season of the arts' starting in the next few weeks which will end with the parade. Will you be going along? Have you missed the arts events cancelled by Covid?

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!
