Cuba Dupa! Sustainability Trust and Workerbe Oasis needs volunteers!
Hi everyone!
We will be helping out the folks at Cuba Dupa and the Sustainability Trust on the 25th and 26th of March. A couple of hours can really make a difference in getting a lot of waste from the event recycled, re-purposed and away from landfill. The sign up sheet is here: docs.google.com...
We helped out at Newtown Festival last weekend and had a great time.
If you haven't been down to the Farm, it is located at 5 Hospital Road, come say hi tomorrow, Saturday 11 am to 1 pm during our volunteer session. /Lisa

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.

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!
