Pest Free Kaipātiki Tool Shed - A Christmas Special
This is the last opportunity to return and borrow tools for the year! If you have empty or nearly empty gel bottles please return them. The next Tool Shed event will not be back until January 22nd, 2022.
We have the usual advice, tools, gloves, herbicides, sterigene for kauri protection, traps and more to borrow, so come on down anytime between 9-12:30pm.

From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
