Poll: How do you rate your barbecuing skills?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Give Hamilton student Rhys Morgan a pair of tongs and some barbecue rub and he can conjure up a meal better than most.

The 12-year-old knows his way around the barbie well enough to be the only kid to be sponsored by large American BBQ company Croix Valley.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
