L'Arche Kapiti Open Day (Sunday 10 September, 11:45-3:00)
Kia ora friends,
To celebrate our 25th anniversary, L'Arche Kapiti in Paraparaumu East is having its first ever Open Day on Sunday 10 September from 11:45-3:00 pm. Drop in for a free sausage sizzle and complimentary tea/coffee. We'll have items for sale as well: cake slices, plants, L'Arche candles, jewelry and more. Bring the kids along for face painting (koha) and a trampoline. We have some beautiful gardens you can check out as well.
L'Arche Kapiti is an intentional community where people with and without intellectual disabilities share life together. We hope to see you there! The address is 5 and 6 Te Aroha Way (formerly Jean Vanier Way), right across from Impact Hub. For more information, contact Candice at 027 307 2477.
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!
