Want a REAL future in Dairy?

Taratahi Institute of Agriculture

There are only four of the 10 places still available in 2019 at the prestigious Central North Island Dairy Academy (CNIDA), which starts in February. All of the 2018 class have begun, or are about to begin their first advanced roles in dairy, and tutor/farmer Dave Horner says there are already employers lining up for the next group of graduates.

It’s an intensive 37-week residential programme, based near Taupo, which combines theory, practical training and on-farm experience based around the Massey University Diploma in Agriculture (Level 5). To find out more and to enrol, visit the Taratahi website.

Some Choice News!

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!
