Poll: Do you agree with Fonterra's move?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Fonterra has announced a suite of new incentives to encourage farmers to reduce their emissions, with big offshore customers paying for an extra bonus.

Reducing emissions is part of Fonterra’s strategy, but it’s the first time it’s started offering incentives for reducing emissions, and the first time its customers Nestle and Mars have offered incentives directly to farmers.

Do you agree with Fonterra's move? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Have you been to Hamilton Gardens lately?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton will soon offer a portal to a medieval ‘hospital’, without the stress of the bubonic plague.

The Medieval Gardens will open next year at Hamilton Gardens, with much of the work already done.

Leaving Neighbourly

Orlando from Pukete

Hey everyone, just a quick note to say I’m leaving Neighbourly. I joined because I thought it would be a good way to connect with people in the community, especially the older generation, and to receive advice, help, and shared knowledge.

Over time I’ve made quite a few posts genuinely looking for help or guidance, and unfortunately I’ve rarely received any responses. Most of the time it’s just one or two likes and no actual comments or help, which gets pretty discouraging after a while.

I understand people are busy, but when you consistently put things out there and hear almost nothing back, it starts to feel like there’s no real point in being part of the platform. Because of that, I’ve decided it’s best for me to move on.

No hard feelings — just not the right fit for me. Wishing everyone all the best.
