The Book Swap Fridge is open!

Melissa Haylock from Book Swap Fridge Spring Creek

Thanks to everyone who donated books! The Book Swap Fridge is now open!
Located on the corner of Gouland Road and March Street, Spring Creek, the Fridge is available day and night - there's even a light in there for night time foraging!
We do have a Facebook page as well www.facebook.com... but I will post here as well.
You can use the fridge in two ways.
1 - As a library. Borrow a book, return it when you are done, and choose another one.
2 - As a book swap. Drop off the book/s you've read so someone else can enjoy them, and swap them for new ones to take home.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
