  • Grapevine-2014-04.Pdf
    1 1 2 Editorial Placing an advertisement The re-opening of the Moutere Hills Community Centre gave me cause to reflect on our commu- nity and what go-getters we are. It has been heartening to see how various groups within the community banded together and managed to carry on after the fires and also contribute to the rebuild. It made me think that we really can’t get by without each other, and like the motto of Wig- gle and Jiggle, the relay for Life team that I was part of says; “It’s more fun doing it together” And once again we have the Community Centre to help us do just that. The water issue is updated on page 4 take note of the public meeting date for that one - your in put is important. Remember the Grapevine is here for you to have a voice, so if there’s anything you want to say, email us at : [email protected] 2 3 3 4 COMMUNITY Braeburn Water Scheme Committee Report March 2014 Further to the article in the last Grapevine, this is an update on the water issue to supply domestic and stock water. The March 1 meeting was well attended, and subsequent follow up discussions, and a meeting with representatives of the Moutere Residents Association have given us a clear direction to progress the proposed scheme as a real possibility. We were fortunate to have Kevin Palmer there, Chair- man and founding member of the Lower Moutere Water Scheme, who outlined the details of their scheme, which is being run very successfully as a private company.

  • NZ: "Significant" Apple Losses in Nelson After Hailstorm
    Apple growers in New Zealand's Nelson region were struck this week by hailstones said to be the size of golf balls, with one producer describing the damage as 'soul destroying'. Local media Radionz.co.nz reported hail fell on the South Island region from Mapua to Riwaka, before hitting Motueka and the Lower Moutere valley. Orchardists were still surveying the damage but apple, pear and kiwifruit crops will be affected, according to Motueka Fruit Growers Association chairman Simon Easton said. The representative reportedly said he had probably lost the entire crop from his Mariri orchard. "The storm was so bad it shredded leaves," he was quoted as saying. "The hail that hit our orchard at Mariri lasted just a few minutes, but long enough to do some real damage. It blew in with a howling easterly and hammered into the trees. It's pretty soul-destroying." Easton was quoted as saying most of the fruit in the Mariri orchard would go to processing. "I don't think there is any chance of salvaging anything there. Our orchard at Lower Moutere looks like it's dodged a bullet; there may be only a hectare with slight damage - and another one of our orchards closer to Mapua has probably got 20-30 percent damage which I think we'll just thin through." "It's going to be difficult but we'll get some salvage out of it. There'll be less fruit going to markets offshore out of Nelson this year, that's for sure." The damage to fruit around Motueka was likely to be far worse than the destruction caused by a hail storm that hit the region in November last year, Easton said.

  • An Introduction to Farming in Nelson
    INTRODUCTION TO FARMING IN By D. M. E, MERRY, Instructor in Agriculture, Nel- son ; N. J. ADAMSON, Horticultural Superintendent, Nelson; and -R. H. SCOTT, Land Utilization Officer, Wellington, all of Department of Agriculture. Nelson is a district of scenic charm. It has an equable and sunny climate and a pattern of farming as ’ diverse, or more so, than any other part of the Domin- ion. It can claim distiinetion and monopoly in that two of its crops, tobacco and hops, provide the finer plea- sures of living. Nelson is a fruitful province. Its agri- culture is neither of the north nor the south. Climate and encircling mountains have mad& its fertile flats highly productive. Fruit, hop, and tobacco growing, cropping, pastoral farming, dairying, and early crop- ping are highly developed and specialised. In its hinter- land of difficult and marginal country the lowlands Nelson is a mountainous province with very little flat land, possibly not more than 3 per cent of the land area. A narrow river valley of inland, Nelson. are turning to furrow and disc as marginal land comes into pasture, while the more difficult country is being extensively re-afforested to exotic timbers for industry and export. The rugged mountainous, hinterland is an explorer’s and huntsman’s paradise. Those of you who have come to Nelson by air in fine weather cannot but have been impressed by the picturesque beauty of the scene. Below, the blue waters of Tasman Bay lap a deeply indented coastline shel- tered to the east and west by majestic mountains with peaks of over 5000ft.
