Replanting Ruby Bay
Saturday, 5 May - 10 am - 2 pm

A local community initiative is underway to provide shrubs and seedlings to flood-affected Ruby Bay residents.

Already we have had 50 small bronze flaxes donated by a local resident, a trailer-load of compost donated by Mapua Landscapes, 100 shrubs donated by Sarah and Miriam of Rhodolea Nurseries, and many more upcoming donations from Coastal Garden group members and local gardeners.

We’re excited at the prospect of being able to provide a variety of free, locally grown plants and shrubs to Ruby Bay residents whose gardens are looking a little bare now after the devastating floods in February.

We plan to hold the first of two Ruby Bay Re-planting days at the old church hall in Aranui Road (opposite the Hills Community Church ) on Saturday 5th May between 10.00 and 2.00.
We hope to have bags of compost available as well as a large variety of salt tolerant shrubs, small trees and seedlings to help fill those gaps.

If you need help to restore your beloved garden or you have plants that you could donate, we’d love to see you.

If you’re looking for reasonably priced plants in the meantime check out the great variety at Rhodolea, 221 Thorpe Street, Motueka. ... See MoreSee Less

Mapua Friday Youth Club Open for Years 9 to 13

The Hills Community Church in conjunction with the TDC and the community have created the Mapua Friday Youth Club for years 9 to years 13. They meet every Friday at Mapua Community Hall, from 6.30pm to 8.30pm doing fun indoor and outdoor activities to help the teenagers bond and learn something from the games. The idea is to create a safe place where teenagers from the community can come hang out. With positive influence from the leaders and each other. The groups leadership also offer mentorship and peer counselling . Come join the fun! See the video below.
