Nine restoration projects within the Waimakariri zone are already contributing to the food chain in the river system.

There are encouraging signs that the thousands of shrubs and trees planted are becoming self-sustaining and insect and bird numbers are growing.

"If you really look around, you'll see two-and-half-year-old native shrubs with five to 10 cocoons attached to them, and you don't see many cocoons on the willows and poplars growing here," says park ranger Greg Stanley.

"Kia ora – Jeremy Baars from New World Ilam here. Keen to discover a new top drop in time for summer?

My favourite wine from this year’s New World Wine Awards is Stoneleigh’s Latitude Marlborough Chardonnay. It’s an excellent example of the Chardonnay style that customers are loving: rich, creamy and buttery, and full of stone fruit flavours. It goes well with dishes that have rich sauces like pasta or seafood and chicken. If Chardonnay isn’t your type, then give Lindauer Rosé a go – it’s a bottle of celebration and fun that’s good quality and at a great price.”

Come into your local New World and explore the Top 50 Gold-medal winning wines – we have winners for every budget. Plus join us for complimentary wine sampling and try before you buy.
