Taranaki LandGirls Event - A Productive Patch, Starting from Scratch
We start 2020 with a visit to a small holding, which started as a bare paddock 3 years ago, and has been turned into a productive food growing area using organic principles, .
Phill and Ann Tarr are hosting this event at their property on 636 Inland North Road, Tikorangi. Phill will share his wealth of growing knowledge gained over many years, as well as his "sieve" composting technique. All your questions will be very welcome.
A shared afternoon tea is part of the event, and chatting with others after the presentation may help to generate ideas for your own property. Please bring something to share to eat, but tea & coffee will be provided.
Also please bring a chair to sit on if you are staying for afternoon tea.
RSVP by Friday 17th January to Shonagh on (06) 752 0889 or at taranakilandgirls@gmail.com

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
