She comes with a collar and chain and a sturdy A-frame house. In the photo, I think she is laughing about the branch tangled in her … View moreMama goat is of medium size, has no horns and enjoys a daily treat of fruit scraps, carrot sticks or bread crusts.

Hi neighbours!

This issue features your food photos of which there are a few. As well as an interview with the sweet-talking fast-moving Edwina Prendergast. The nearly 92 year old fabulous local who's not afraid of a bit of hard graft. Quite possibly the most incredible person I've ever interviewed.

Graham McBride our local historian has supplied another local history story to continue the 'roads of Te Kowhai' series.

Remember, his stories are all available in his Tales of Te Kowhai book. You can order one direct from Graham by giving him a bell on 07 829 7726.

Te Kowhai Cafe is open for business. They do a mean pie, a fast coffee and a wicked egg and bean bagel stack for breakfast.

Anyway, enough from me.

Te Kowhai News is delivered free to all homes and businesses in RD8. Or check out your digital copy here.

How will you be celebrating National Volunteer Week next month?

National Volunteer Week (17-23 of June 2018)
celebrates the 1.2 million Kiwis who are volunteering their time and skills to our communities every year.

The theme this year is Volunteers, The Heart of our Community – By many, the work will be completed, Mā tini, mā mano, ka rapa te whai.

We think this captures the essence of what volunteering is about. This is a time to acknowledge how volunteering efforts contribute to and enrich all communities within Aotearoa.
