Feilding Repair Cafe

Bev from Feilding

23 items were given a new lease of life and saved from the landfil at the June Feilding Repair CAFE.....and all because of YOU the public who supported us and the VOLUNTEERS who generously give 3 hours of their time once a month to bring this waste reduction service to our community. Thanks again to the ongoing support of Darragh's Mitre 10 Feilding for generous deals; Environment Network Manawatū - for the use of the beautiful banners; Kinetic Electrical - Feilding; - for expert certified volunteers; Bin Inn Feilding; Paperplus Feilding Rosebowl Bakery & Cafe Manawatū District Libraries - Feilding Library for displaying our posters; Feilding & District Promotion Repair Cafe Aotearoa NZ for their promotional support; Manawatū District Council for the initial start up dollars from the Waste Not Want Not Fund... without you all this could not happen.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
