Neighbours' Day Aotearoa 2022
Heads up for NDA 2022. The theme for next year is Celebrating Community, Sharing Food. Everyone is encouraged to connect through kai e.g. sharing a cuppa, fresh produce, a recipe or hosting a picnic or BBQ. You can start now by sharing a recipe using an online form at neighboursday.org.nz or emailing to kiaora@neighboursday.org.nz. This could be a whanau favourite, your aunty's special chutney or your most loved cake. NDA will then share your recipe throughout the land for people to try, share and enjoy within their communities. You can post your recipe too, to P O Box 1 Paparoa, 0543. Share a recipe, share kai.

Some Choice News!
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!
