Could you please take note and distribute to your networks as necessary.
The tsunami sirens installed along Christchurch’s coastline from Brooklands to Taylors Mistake will be tested as part of a biannual testing exercise to coincide with daylight savings.
The sirens will sound for up to three minutes and can usually be heard a few blocks from the coastline.
If you live near the coast, it’s a good time to check whether you are in a tsunami evacuation zone and to work out a plan with your family.

- extending the planting season significantly as the beds will warm faster and hold the warmth
- allowing better drainage
- as the gardener doesn’t walk on the garden bed, the soil doesn’t become compacted
- the soil will remain light and loose allowing it to hold more air helping the vegetable roots to grow with less effort
- ability to reduce the number of weeds
- if using close plant spacing your raised vegetable garden bed will create a micro-climate which will contain moisture and further discourage weeds.
Fill with compost, mulch, good soil and fertiliser mix.
If you are looking for a raised garden bed or planter box see Out of the Woods Woodshop here on Neighbourly.
