Friends of Karori Cemetery - consulting on the Conservation Plan
The Friends' are currently being consulted on the Conservation Plan for Karori Cemetery and would love your feedback. We have the following questions and welcome your answers or any other comments you have:
- To what standard do you think the graves should be cleaned or restored, or should they be left to the families to look after?
- If Karori Cemetery was to become a heritage park, how do you imagine it should look in 50 years?
- Are there areas of the cemetery that should be left to slowly decay?
If you prefer, you can email your answers to: info@friendsofkaroricmetery.co.nz
Comments on this post will close on 31st May.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
We're sad to announce the passing of Nicholas Boyack, our Hutt Valley reporter who has long written for The Dominion Post, The Hutt News and Upper Hutt Leader.
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
