Jennifer Eder Reporter from Marlborough Express

How great - Picton could soon have garden plots for rent and public fruit and nut trees at Huia St Reserve. It comes as another community garden gets underway behind the Havelock Medical Centre. What would you be planting?

Meet our newest team member, Julie, who joined the VM team a couple of weeks ago, taking on the role of Coordinator for Volunteer Services!

Julie moved to Blenheim 22 years ago and, along with her husband, Paul, and two children, now calls Marlborough home.

Julie is currently on the committee for Churchwood Park Scouts, and she helps out with street appeals whenever she can.

Before coming to VM, Julie has been a teacher for 8+ years and a realtor, and spent some time in the tourism sector. While she enjoyed these careers greatly, Julie's heart is centered around helping people wherever she can, so this new role sits well with her. Supporting Marlborough's volunteers to help others is something she is very much looking forward to.

Read Julie's full bio in the 'About' section of our website (link below).

Guinea pig free to a good home

Alexi from Blenheim

This little guy is around 18 months old. He's a boar, so would not mix well with other guinea pigs. (Males together tend to fight). He is used to spending some time in a cage but also much run around time for his exercise and mental health. Either a spacious cage or being able to run around … View moreThis little guy is around 18 months old. He's a boar, so would not mix well with other guinea pigs. (Males together tend to fight). He is used to spending some time in a cage but also much run around time for his exercise and mental health. Either a spacious cage or being able to run around some of the time would suit this lively character. He would become very tame with frequent handling. He was rescued from a situation where he did not have enough food or water, and he has been brought back to good health and weight, and is now ready for his new forever home. The 3rd image was of him as a baby - so cute. Any questions welcomed :)
