Rotary Peace and Remembrance Forest Planting. Can you help?
Rotary Peace and Remembrance Forest Planting
Friday 2nd July 2021 8.30am to 12.00pm Plimmerton Domain- Ulric St.
There is more planting to be done on Wednesday as well as some weeding. Most of the planting will be undertaken by a team from Porirua City and the aim is to plant 2500 stems during the morning. This is an impressive start to this year's planting programme at the Forest and builds on last year's very successful planting.
Rotary Club members will undertake some weeding and tidying up of last year’s planting.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
