Summertime work on Te Ahumairangi Hill
Summertime releasing work is underway on the Grow Te Ahumairangi Forest project.
If you’d like to join us all you need is a degree of fitness, stout footwear, a pair of gloves and a good eye for plant recognition (or the desire to learn same).
So it’s mainly close work, pulling out weed species around our native plantings and checking growth or survival! We do sessions morning or afternoon on fine days.
If you are keen to see native forest restored on Te Ahumairangi Hill, please join us when you are able.
Phone, text or email me to coordinate a time to join me.
Please spread the word through your communities.
Be well and happy!

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!
