We have considerable challenges to maintain our current network and be prepared for growth. Maintaining a balance between delivering affordable, clean and sufficient water must be balanced with ensuring our take does not adversely affect the eco-systems of the relevant waterways or result in environmentally harmful discharges.

Here are a few shots of our beekeeper collecting our honey from Wellington's hills. This is where our honey comes from. Note the dark frame will be manuka honey the light one possibly will be clover.

We are selling our house. Native trees are a big feature. Our canopy is dominated by kanuka (most of them more than half a century old) and kohuhu and mamaku but there are also, on or just outside the property, specimens of kaikomako, karamu, kauri, kowhai, mahoe, ngaio, pohutukawa, puriri, rama … View moreWe are selling our house. Native trees are a big feature. Our canopy is dominated by kanuka (most of them more than half a century old) and kohuhu and mamaku but there are also, on or just outside the property, specimens of kaikomako, karamu, kauri, kowhai, mahoe, ngaio, pohutukawa, puriri, rama rama, ti-kauka. Lower than the canopy but over 2 metres high and mostly at least 40 years old are hange hange, horoeka, karaka, kohekohe, koromiko, miro, ponga, rewa rewa, rimu, taraire, tarata, taupata, titoki, totara, wharangi, and whauwhaupaku. Several climbing plants, such as the brilliantly-flowering puawhananga, have reached the canopy, and there are several species of ferns, flaxes, and ground covers. We have a productive apple tree and a very productive lemon tree as well as numerous herbs and other introduced plants. Our RV, 6 months old, is $750,000. Sea views include Mana Island, and we have three bedrooms plus office/bedroom. We have chosen an agent but not signed a contract yet.

We want March to be all about celebrating the connections we have while making new ones along the way. As we all know, what makes a neighbourhood great isn’t the houses and cars, gardens and streets - it’s the people who share their presence and aroha with each other.
A wonderful way to take part is to participate in Neighbours Day Aotearoa which takes place from 27 March - 5 April. This year’s theme is ‘Small Things Make a Big Difference’ - we couldn’t agree more!
Let us know how you’re celebrating by email or tag us online and include the following hashtag:

Kia ora koutou, I’m Kara, and a co-chair of the Whaitua Te Whanganui-a-Tara Committee tasked with making recommendations to Greater Wellington Regional Council on the future of our coastal and freshwater quality, and how our water is used.

Our waterways and all the fish and species that live in them are precious taonga, so we have set out to understand how they are valued and what should be done to provide the future we want for our water. I am also a conduit to Taranaki Whānui mana whenua on the Whaitua Committee.
Raised on our whānau farm in Wanui-o-mata, I have always been involved with supporting iwi in their freshwater projects and treaty settlement processes. As kaitiaki of the taiao, our taonga, it is incumbent upon each of us to preserve the integrity of our environment and way of life. This is a journey to save the health and mauri of our waterways, we need to fix urban water infrastructure and more ways to connect with our Wai.
We need to find solutions that are equitable and fair. Doing nothing is an option with our population growing fast and putting more pressure on our waste and storm water infrastructure.
