Just a reminder the hospital pick up is no longer operating and does not show on the website. We hope a new pick up can be found at the hospital end of town for 2020 so any one with any bright ideas please let us know. The new Te Tihi pick up is at 200 Broadway just opposite the Catholic church. St Matthews is still the main pick up with both lunchtime and after work pick up options.

In all my years of being in the food industry the milk I received from Manna Milk was the best quality I have ever seen, it is beautiful, thick and creamy with a buttery hue. It has made some outstanding cheese as well. Since MPI's over zealous shutdown I have no where to buy Cows milk from. I support local business and never fonterra who almost have a complete monopoly on the industry. The milk at the supermarket in comparison to the milk from Manna Milk is disgusting, watery and over priced crap.
MPI have shut them down based on possibility as it is possible to get some nasty "bugs"from raw milk. I have not been able to locate anyone that has become Ill from their product. At all. Vastly more people get sick from chicken every year that people that get sick from raw milk and I don't see Teagle being shut down regardless of the horrific conditions Chickens live their short lives in.
The shut down of Manna Milk can be viewed as an attack on our rights to be able to feed our self with our chosen products. It is most definitely an over reaction and it is completely unacceptable. It is our choice to be able to get raw milk and no one has the right to stop us.
MPI are not protecting anyone by doing this. It was barely 100 years ago that raw milk was more than common. Humans have been consuming it since we started consuming the milk of other species. If the biggest out break of campylobacter (Timaru) due to contaminated raw milk in NZ is only 7 people. That is not enough to warrant the type of behavior MPI have exhibited.
I ask you all to support Manna Milk in this situation, it is grossly unfair on them and their share holders and it is destruction of a local business forcing them to have to give their milk to fonterra, furthering their monopoly. The NZ dairy industry seems to have a corruption issue and it seems to be enforced in a way, by MPI. Support locals and their businesses and not multi billion dollar organizations that would have all competition shut down if they could.

A collection of Palmerston North's primary and public health services will reopen on Broadway next week at the refitted and extended former Returned and Services' Association premises.
Staff based at Health on Main employed by the primary health organisation Think Hauora, Te Tihi o Ruahine Whānau Ora Alliance and the Manawatū Horowhenua Tararua Diabetes Trust are on the move.
They will be joined by MidCentral's public health and child health services.
Do you think this move will be convenient for people accessing these services? Or are you concerned Broadway is already too busy as it is?

More unusual is that I got it for not putting up my Mobility Card when in a Mobility Park at Countdown Ranagitiki Supermarket. Yes I do have a Card and the mobility issue that says I can use these parks and am sure that as usual I put it up when I left my car. Strangely until today was unaware that Wilson Parking was monitoring these parks. How do I prove that it was up when they say it wasn't and I didn't find the ticket till I got home? For others, first off be aware someone is watching (Wilson staff) and you may get a ticket if you park in Supermarket Carpark Parks for obviously a variety of reasons.
