Autumn Garden Tour
Cashmere Presbyterian Church are running an Autumn Garden Tour on Saturday 2nd March.
Enjoy and be inspired by a self-guided tour around a selection of gardens in an area ranging from Cashmere to Tai Tapu.
From small-but-large-in-content gardens, to one with four hectares of native planting, there is something to interest everyone. Tours of Moffatts Flower Company, and a talk about the regeneration at Ernle Clark Reserve will also be available.
Gardens will be open to visit between 11.00am and 4.00pm, and Cream Teas will be available to purchase at the Church from 10.15am to 3pm.
Tickets are $50 each, and can be booked at events.humanitix.com... (note, there is no credit card surcharge to book through this method)
And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
