Millennium Reserve working bee
The Millennium Native Forest Reserve has been described as Masterton's hidden gem. It is a a reforestation project run entirely by volunteers on land owned by Masterton Trust Lands Trust.
There will be a working bee on Saturday 8th October (fall back date 15th October if wet) from 9am to noon (with light refreshments available).
If you enjoy visiting the Reserve, or haven't yet discovered it, you're most welcome to come along and help with, for example, track work, trimming vegetation, planting, weeding, spreading mulch.
Please bring your own tools as we have only limited supplies.
To register (to help with planning) or for queries please contact Christine on 027 309 1868
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
Builder Wanted or seeking builder (LBP).
We are looking for a semi-retired builder or solo LBP to supervise / co-work with me while I undertake an extension project as a self-build . Rates to be negotiated prior to commencement. Currently in the design stage at present with Architect. I have experience from past house builds so not a raw beginner, both in design and construction.
Thanks Phil
