A bit of history of Tree Crops Association up north: there did exist a branch which due to a lack of ongoing interest was absorbed into the Auckland branch which changed its name to the 'Northern region' . However, due to a northerly migration of many 'good folk' from Auckland , about half of the Auckland roll was living from Wellsford north, so this endeavour to reinstitute a northern (Northland) branch is underway. The concept of having a Far North branch is something we will look closer at once we can get our numbers up. We do plan to alternate events between centres to stimulate interest and give everybody a fair go at participating. So we look forward to a van full of eager Kaitaians on the 8th!
See you there.
