New possibilities:<\/strong> Caroline has been talking with people about new community initiatives to coincide Global Sharing Week, [link not current] June 4 \u2013 11. These include improving the connections between the Wellington TimeBank and the Houghton Valley Progressive Association with more people trading time with each other in Houghton Valley. She is proposing a meeting attended by a TimeBank member to discusses whether the Association becomes a member (e.g. like Kaibosh<\/a> or hold events at the hall involving members with specific skills).<\/p>\n\n\n

Fruit Tree Guardians<\/strong>: Jenny of Houghton Bay Rd reports that on Sunday seven people met to clear weeds to create a space to plant semi-wild community fruit trees. The site for the Houghton Valley Fruit Tree Guardian Project is alongside the track behind the school leading up to Sinclair Park, just before the horse paddock gate. Blackberry and honey suckle were cleared and used to make a low wind barrier. The bush around the other three sides will give good protection. A bit more work is still required to clear the last of the weeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will be applying for some trees under the Council\u2019s Guardian tree programme by 22 May, and planting will be around late June early July. If you are interested in helping (we will be creating more sites as well).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
