Protect copper butterflies

Chrissie from Nelson

Look at these gorgeous copper butterflies, all found ONLY in NZ. There are some incredibly rare ones. Aren't they beautiful?

The Moths and Butterflies of NZ Trust is fundraising to undertake DNA research for their Butterfly Discovery Project, starting with our copper butterflies. They are found only in NZ and if they become extinct, we cannot reintroduce them.


The plan is to raise $15,000 to protect the butterflies - read more about it HERE. You can help... if ten people gave $5 it will all add up. Even sharing this post far and wide will help!

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
