Brooklyn Market this Saturday afternoon
The next quarterly Brooklyn Community Market is on this Saturday 17 June from 12 to 4pm at the Brooklyn Community Centre on Harrison Street. Catch up with friends and neighbours while browsing through a wide variety of stalls. Everything from homemade pickles, preserves and chutneys, to fresh produce, crafts, Greek desserts, Eastern European baking, tote bags, hats, jewellery, resin goods, crystals, books, sustainable products, and lots more. Plus local knife sharpener, Andrew Bennett, will be on the deck sharpening knifes, scissors, and gardening tools. Delicious food available from the kitchen and the Brooklyn Scouts BBQ outside. Everybody welcome.
FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael

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!
