Hi folks,
Our joint (successful) action has helped propel fresh initiatives which will assist neighbourhoods resist the scourge of Liquor Stores "invading" our communities in future.The news snippet below highlights certain progress on this matter:

It was often said during our campaign that we could never successfully fight through a process which was deeply flawed - but they didn't reckon on a co-ordinated and determined group like the Harewood residents!
We proved an involved community can succeed BUT it wasn't easy and communities need access to resources to fight the wealthy liquor industry.
There is no doubt our efforts resonated and we need these initiatives for Community Law involvement to work and be cemented into place.
Thanks folks for all the support - we are in this together.
Kind regards
Colin I Fussell
Flowers for free ????
Very disappointed that our front garden had a 14 bud Christmas Regal Lilly cut and taken with several others last night, but what it lead others to do was worse damage. They ripped out other flowers and some may not recover. Do not come back tonight, as we are cutting all of them today.
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!
