Grazing Wanted for 3 horses

Roxanne from Rangiora

Hello, my name is Roxanne, I am looking for grazing land for my 3 horses.
I am looking for a minimum of 5 acres for them. I have owned lifestyle properties for approximately 30 years, so I understand how to properly manage and maintain pasture and fencing etc.
Since selling my last lifestyle property 2 years ago I have been grazing my horses at one property here in Rangiora. However, this property has just been sold so I need to find a new location for them soon.

I live close by and check on my horses at least once a day and supplement feed them during winter and when required. They are very well taken care of with regular hoof care by a professional farrier, worming, dentistry, covering and general husbandry. I have never missed a payment in the 2 years that I have been grazing at this property.

I am a mature woman, very friendly, respectful and approachable. I love my horses and am looking for a nice situation in which they can spend their senior years.

If you can help or know somebody else in the area who has grazing land available, I would love to hear from you.

Thank you for your time.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Canterbury is thriving on paper... but are you seeing evidence of Canterbury's improving economy?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Press, Reserve Bank Governor Anna Breman recently gave a shout-out to our region, calling Canterbury a "stand-out" for how we recover from tough times. With tech firms growing and exporters investing, the business side of things is looking bright!

👉 But we know that "business growth" doesn't always mean the weekly shop gets any cheaper. While the city expands, many families feel like they’re just trying to keep their heads above water.

We want to know: With the business buzz of 2026, do you feel like things are finally looking up for your household, or does it still feel like a climb?
