Explorer are doing a 25% off deal until the end of May. Went to Waiheke, Man O' War Vineyard for a winetasting & lunch. Then a side trek to the Waiheke Distilling Company for a gin tasting. Was a glorious day for an island excursion. #Auckland #TamakiMakaurau #Waiheke #nzwine #somethingBeautiful https://www.exploregroup.co.nz/auckland/man-o-war/

From this morning's walk: the moon (past full now) was still in the sky in daylight. Some shore plants poking out of the water. And very blue skies. #moon #somethingBeautiful #TamakiMakaurau #Auckland
This was an hour ago.

The days may be getting shorter but it's still light really early. Not the most spectacular morning but I really like the way the colours look in the sky & reflected on the water. #TamakiMakaurau #Auckland #sunrise #somethingBeautiful
Train frequencies might be barely 1/hour in #TāmakiMakaurau right now, but I'm still counting it as a win.
Because it's not only a holiday, it's THE holiday when everything is closed.
And we won't have trains in the city for a full month.
Trains are running on a weekend in #TāmakiMakaurau!

Do you want to come and rain on #Fonterra's Parade?

Greenpeace Community PlatformCome send a message to Fonterra's investorsThis is a peaceful, family-friendly event in Auckland where we will come together to construct a giant banner.
Fonterra is holding its annual Shareholders’ Fund Meeting. We think its a great time to send their investors a very clear message that it’s time to divest from rainforest destruction!
Fonterra is a cooperative made up of around 8000 farmer shareholders, but ‘outside investors’ can also hold shares in Fonterra through the Shareholders’ Fund.
These investors also have influence...

This community is building a maara kai (food garden), revitalising their stream, and planning for a resilient greener future.
Today the locals are feeding everyone with hangi and reaching out to get everyone involved and on board.
Everything but the meat in the hangi, came out of these very gardens.
Truly inspiring, joyful work happening in Manurewa.
The solutions are here, we just need to take action together.
