Do you visit Blue Spring/Te Waihou often?

Libby Totton Reporter from South Waikato News

Rockfall and risky parking have shut the “hidden gem” of Putāruru’s Blue Spring and Te Waihou Walkway for up to a year while the council finds a solution.

That’s unlikely to be simple or quick, South Waikato District Council says, but it’s not going to wait for an accident to happen … View more

Paddocks for Use

Corrine from Cambridge

We have a number of paddocks on a lifestyle block just out of TA with a number of fruit trees and we are currently running some sheep and a cute kunekune pig. We would be open to letting someone take over the use of these paddocks and they can fatten up their own sheep, in return for looking after… View moreWe have a number of paddocks on a lifestyle block just out of TA with a number of fruit trees and we are currently running some sheep and a cute kunekune pig. We would be open to letting someone take over the use of these paddocks and they can fatten up their own sheep, in return for looking after the paddocks i.e. spraying, etc. You are welcome to also look after the fruit trees and we would share the fruit. We normally give most of it away anyway. Ideal for a retired farmer wanting a project with the added bonus of having some land, animals and fruit. Open to suggestions. Thanks :-)
