Hello to Neighbourly from Wadestown's Village Green Trust!
Our Wadestown community know us well, from our work to date on building John’s Track and the gardens around Wadestown Library. We've now set up this page on Neighbourly, to keep you in touch with our latest Wadestown heritage project...
If you're a regular user of John's Track you'll have read our earlier heritage story boards about Spike Milligan Corner, and Philip Myers Park. Since making those, we've been researching other sites of significance in Wadestown. Some of these were once celebrated on a Heritage Trust board outside the library. We're working on replacing it and linking it to a Heritage Trail for you and your family to enjoy walking and learning more about each site, and our local history.
More later. We'll post on Neighbourly each month to let you know how we're going with the Trail. And we hope you'll get in touch to share any family memories you have about Wadestown as it was.
Ngā mihi

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
