Popular Daffodil Festival at risk
Carterton's Daffodil Festival may be the latest Wairarapa event struck from the calendar because of Covid-19.
The seasonal nature of the festival, and the logistic difficulties, means that it cannot be rescheduled.
The show brings up to 10,000 visitors to the district every September, and adds hundreds of thousands of dollars to Wairarapa’s economy.
Nearby sold out shows, including gigs by musician Dave Dobbyn and comedian Ben Hurley, were recently rearranged for later in the year because of the return of restrictions.

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!
Roller
Has anybody got a concrete or water filled hand roller that they don't need anymore. I'm putting down a new lawn and need it to compact the dirt down.
