Only rain down the drain
We’ve had a lot of rain recently, and all of this rain has washed what was on peoples lawns, berms, driveways, streets and in the gutters, into our stormwater network.
The water entering our stormwater network does not get treated, this means EVERYTHING flows directly into our streams, rivers, and eventually our ocean.
Put any ‘waste’, such as cigarette butts, dog poo, or rubbish, into a rubbish bin.
Let’s all look after our waterways, and remember only rain down the drain.

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!
