Sunset Alignment on Historic Kopu Bridge

Carolyn from Thames

If you love sunsets, don’t miss the first ever Historic Kōpū Bridge Sunset Alignment on Friday 26th February. Many ancient structures, such as England’s Stonehenge, were built to capture the sun’s rays during the summer solstice - the longest day. Here in Thames Kōpū, the setting sun’s rays will shine directly down the Historic Kōpū Bridge’s 463 metres on Friday 26th February. Sunset is at 8.01pm. Bring your camera! Bring your picnic! Join us for a brilliant, once-a-year photoshoot. The bridge is wheelchair accessible. This is a free event, but a koha/donation is always welcome. Gates will be open during the day from 7am and will remain open, weather permitting, until 8.30pm.

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!
