Real estate by koha? Your chance to get a slice of Canterbury's peaks

Reporter Northern Outlook

Hi Canterbury,

Hi Canterbury,

What do you think about the opportunity to transfer this hillside to public ownership? Will you be donating?

500-hectares of Lyttelton hillside has been put up for auction and Stuff has teamed up with a charitable trust to get the high-country plot into public ownership.

The Rod Donald Banks Peninsula Trust launched its Te Ahu Pātiki project to purchase the spot between Mt Herbert and Mt Bradley after an offer from a local farmer.

$1.5 million is needed to set up the park and the trust has been crowd funding for the last $600,000 it needs.

With five weeks until the deadline sale, $120,000 still needs to be raised.

Multiple land crossings scattered across the private land have been accessible only through land-owner permission. Ron Donald Trust manager Suky Thompson says that public ownership would guarantee the Te Ara Pātaka tramping network, running from Akaroa to Lyttelton, would always be accessible.

"Those private land crossings are unsecured, which means that they rely on the goodwill of the current landowner. If that landowner was to have a change of attitude, or if the land was to be sold to a new owner who didn't want the public there, they could be closed."

Hi neighbours,

Location is the drawcard for a newly revamped Christchurch café.

Red Eight at Portstone is the newly renovated café inside the Portstone Garden Centre on Ferry Rd in Woolston, sporting a unique look and vibe compared to the city’s many other hospitality joints.

Its location inside Portstone Garden Centre allows copious sunlight to beam through the surrounding glass, reflecting off the freshly painted walls and decorated furniture. The feel is light and summery with bright colours and a feature wall as you walk in, just how owner Stephanie Reeves wanted it.

Throwback Thursday: Daffodil day

"A host of golden daffodils .... fluttering and dancing in the breeze," so wrote the poet William
Wordsworth.

But he would have found it impossible to "wander lonely as a cloud" at the Christchurch Botanic Gardens on September 19, 1948.

A Sunday stroll in the gardens has long been a ritual for Christchurch folk but the daffodil lawn has attracted more than the usual crowds this Sunday. It is the 10th anniversary of the annual Daffodil Day observance.

Framed by the band rotunda, left, and Avon River footbridge, right, people celebrate the occasion in their Sunday best.

Kiwis have already put up more than half the cash needed to bring two of Christchurch’s highest peaks into public ownership and turn them into a conservation park.

The Press has teamed up with the Rod Donald Banks Peninsula Trust on its Te Ahu Pātiki project, to help raise enough money to buy a 500-hectare block between Mt Herbert and Mt Bradley.

The aim is to make sure the public will always have access to a sprawling network of popular walking tracks, and to let the whole block return to native bush.

A Givealittle page was launched this morning to help the trust overcome its last hurdle. Click the links below to read the full story and donate.

Christchurch's beer academy is spreading the word of good beer-making through expert classes with some of New Zealand's top brewers.

Brew Academy was launched in July 2019 by former plumber Granville Denton​, 43, but he struggled to get it off the ground at first – a problem exacerbated when the Covid-19 pandemic hit early last year.
