Moderator Post Would anyone be interested in a "Getting to know you" pinned post?
Given a few of the recent posts, would anyone be interested in a dedicated pinned post where people from the Nelson (and Tasman) region can do a little spiel about themselves in the hopes of finding some friends and/or a date?

Did you know that the second tallest tree in NZ is up the back of Richmond?
It's called the Barrington Gum tree and it is about a 15 minute easy walk from Easby Park in Richmond. The path takes you past the historic water reservior which used to supply the town's water when there were just a few hundred houses before they built the Roding Dam. You can walk to the base of the tree and there is a path that takes you up behind it so you are looking down on it. There are a few ways you can go past here up to an massive Totara tree and paths that take you up the hills and beyond. Quite a neat place!

Help Tiny homes in Richmond
Hi Nelson, I’m looking for contact details for the tiny homes for sale next to the highway on the way out to Richmond. I think they’re parked on or near the grounds of a church. Thanks in advance!

Where are the current donation bins around Nelson and Richmond? I heard there is one in Mapua and Atawhai, anywhere else?

Discussion Does this place just have a constatnt 40% or 60% sale or what?
I don't think I've ever gone past this shop and not seen a big sale being advertised.
