Fiona Stewart’s farm upbringing has shaped her into the person she is today.
It taught her the importance of food, animals and wellbeing, and how these can be used to better people’s lives, particularly youths.
Cultivate Christchurch is her baby. She first started the initiative with the idea it would be rurally based, but meeting co-founder Bailey Perryman, an ecologist, in 2015 showed her a farm school could be done without having to leave the city.

Since returning to the South Island five years ago, Russell has been proud to witness Christchurch’s resurgence. “Christchurch is like a phoenix risen from the ashes, with a tremendous opportunity to redefine itself.” And now he is playing his part in reimagining our city’s aged care offering.
Russell has built his team at The Bellevue with one goal in mind. “As the Care Manager I believe I have a principle responsibility to set the scene in providing an environment where staff can truly excel, feel empowered and make a positive difference to the lives of residents, families and each other.”
During the transition to care, extra support is provided. “Our fantastic Guest Services Manager is the key to helping residents feel at ease when they first move in, as she provides a hospitality overlay. She’ll get to know you so that she can provide all the extra touches that make you feel at home,” says Russell.
Another initiative Russell is proud of is that couples can stay together in the same room, even if their needs are not aligned. Russell has seen the impact it has on residents - “It is just wonderful to offer couples Care Suites which allow couples to stay together – just as they always have,” says Russell.
To find out more about our Care Suites, with Rest Home and Hospital level care, get in touch with Russell today.

The Christchurch City Council has taken away 840 bins from parks and is installing 81 “smart” bins instead, leaving 211 neighbourhood parks without a rubbish bin and others with fewer bins than before.
While the council says the transition has been “very smooth” and has only resulted in a few litter complaints, residents and councillors are reporting a different picture.
Residents have resorted to picking up litter themselves, but their patience is wearing thin. Some are blaming the council for taking the bins away in the first place, while others say people need to be responsible for their own rubbish and take it home. Continue reading here.
Had my 20 metre high Eucalyptus tree felled and have some large slabs left. You will need a chainsaw. $150 for a caged trailer since wood is green and you will need to cut it yourself.

Meanwhile, a union representative says the wheelie bin collection industry was struggling to find workers nationwide because rubbish truck drivers are put off by 60-hour work weeks.
The Christchurch City Council's rubbish collecting contractor, Waste Management NZ, is set a target of missing just 1.5 streets each working day. In April, the average number of streets missed was 17.1.
