Our mowing team is flat out!

Seamus Boyer from Wellington City Council

It's been a wet and warm few months which has been great for grass, but not so good for our mowing team, which has been busy trying to keep up with keeping it down.

The focus recently has been on busy sites like play areas, cemeteries and reserves, but despite our staff being a cut above the rest and working long hours straight through to the New Year, we may not get to mow and trim everywhere – so we ask for patience in the meantime, and to remember the grass is always greener!

For more info on our awesome mowing team, check out the story and video here: wellington.govt.nz...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz
