    If it ends up being near a major stream/wetland you could even try getting some funding from Regional Council as you would be enhancing their waterways and/or creating a green corridor.


    Seriously though, if you get to the stage of building the thing, flick me a PM if you want some guidance regarding plant species, spacings, etc, I think I can help you out there.
    Ok thanks

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    We have had so much rain it's impossible to get heavy machinery out the back of the farm.

    I heard today that a hawkes bay orchardist ( who wants to remain anonymous ) Has sunk his bulldozer in a swamp, not even the exhaust stack is showing.

    Imagine the cost to get it out, strip it and get it going again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    The old unoccupied "Warehouse" in Hastings would have to be 100yds long internally.
    Been abandoned for ages.

    Maybe if we offered them $100, they'd take it?
