Have you lost someone who has been special to you?
Maybe they have passed away, developed a serious illness or developed a disability that has changed your life style Maybe you have separated, moved to a new area or experienced some other major change in circumstances, or such like that have caused you some grief or anxiety.
We run a 5 week Seasons programme for adults – one evening a week. We will be starting a new group this week and you are most welcome to come along and see if this programme works for you. There will be two facilitators and a small group of around five or six people discussing the various topics relating to these significant changes, while learning some strategies that may help you.
Registration is essential.

With a mild climate and ample space our farms are ideally suited to natural farming methods, the highest standards of animal welfare and sustainable environmental care. We produce world class grass fed red meat with a flavourful taste and tender eating quality.
Produce of Alliance, New Zealand’s only 100% farmer-owned red meat co-operative.
Come and visit the shop - all Bric a Brac will be half price for the whole of next week (Monday 8th to Saturday 13th May). We look forward to seeing you.

My brother flew back to Australia after a deep sea fishing trip in the Bay of Plenty with 10kgs of Bluenose fish fillets packed in a marked poly-bin.
It had cleared NZ Customs but did not get put on his Qantas flight and apparently there is no trace of it.
Auckland International Airport and NZ Customs have not investigated nor offered any information as to how this happened so beware that even at our international border, nothing is safe.
Interestingly the skipper of the Charter Boat he went out on said that he takes out many foreign fishermen but mainly from Australia and the USA so this tourism is valuable to NZ and we need to do better.

We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind. We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.
Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.
Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed.
