OPEN FOR BUSINESS IN UH

Michael from Trentham

Two good news stories in Upper Hutt underlines the fledgling progressiveness of the city.

I had reported in two separate threads that popular Dough Bakery Cafe in Whirinaki shuts off its coffee services at 2.30pm and that the swish, up-market new cafe/bar at the Cossie Club was unable to open due to staff shortages.

Well, Dough Bakery now serves coffee til 3.30pm in joining all the other cafes who operate within the 3pm-4pm spectrum and the Cossie Club has snared new staff to enable its cafe to finally open its doors.

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!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
