Information to help you during Gita
Cyclone Gita is upon us, so please stay safe. Don’t travel if you don’t absolutely need to, get your grab bag ready if you’re in a low-lying area and make sure family and friends know about your plan. Keep an eye on the Marlborough District Council website and listen to your radio including Brian FM on 100.9 FM Blenheim, 105.9 FM Picton and 100.1 FM Havelock, for local information. Take care of yourselves, your family and whanau and your neighbours.

Festive Farmers' Market Christmas Market
SharpAs Tool Tips
I’ll be at today’s Marlborough Farmers' Market from 3–6pm — a great last chance to get your knives sharpened before a busy Christmas Day.
If you have knives, tools, or other items that need sharpening, come along to the special Farmers’ Market today.
Please note: aside from the statutory days, I’ll still be open.
Cheers,
Ron
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!
