Reporter Franklin County News

Hey Neighbours,
Take a look at what Franklin County News looked like on June 14, 1978!

Those real estate prices are making us green with envy - a five bedroom Tuakau house, remodeled, complete with a double garage, 2000 sq ft and separate one bedroom flat for just $37,000!

Any guesses for how much a 62.7ha Tuakau dairy farm with two houses, a cowshed, workshop, and two haybarns was to purchase in 1978?

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!
