12 months, zero fees*

The Team from Ryman Healthcare

Relax, we’ve got it covered, enjoy a year of free fees*

At Ryman you won’t pay your base weekly fee for a whole year* when you sign up to an independent apartment or townhouse at a participating Ryman village before 30 June 2025.

That means that you won’t pay rates, water rates, building insurance, maintenance fees and more. That’s great financial certainty.

*Participating villages only, Ts and Cs apply

Wood splitting jig

Ron from Fairhall - Renwick - Woodbourne

SharpAs Tool Tips

It’s that time of year again—time to get ready for splitting firewood!

Pictured is a New Zealand-designed wood splitting jig, brought in for sharpening ahead of winter. It’s a great alternative to an axe and works well without much effort.

If you have axes, tools of any kind, kitchen utensils, or knives that need sharpening, come and see me:
🔹 Redwood Market – Saturday mornings
🔹 Marlborough Farmers' Market – Sunday mornings
Or contact me directly at 027 444 5535.

⚠️ With heavy rain possible, I may cancel attendance—so please get in touch if you're unsure.

Cheers,
Ron
