It will be great to catch up with friends and the market 'family' on Saturday (January 21), says organiser Jane Manson speaking for all regular market goers.

And what has Jane and the Family Market got in store this month?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Invasive and noxious pest plants such as ragwort and thistles are obvious on a number of Tamahere properties at the moment raising questions about whether some landowners are aware of their responsibilities.

The yellow-flowering ragwort - highly invasive and poisonous to cattle and horses - is one of the more obvious invaders currently as its bright flowers make an appearance from November to April. The purple flowers of plumeless and nodding thistles are similarly signalling their presence.

Tamahere landowners are required to ...]]></description>

<strong>My first encounter with Riccio, the salumi maker, is not reassuring. He is in the butchery, sorting and weighing meat for the farmers’ market, where he will once again confirm his reputation as the best prosciutto maker in the district. I have been assigned to help.</strong>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The rare and welcome sight of tui breeding in their Tamahere garden has started 2012 on a high note for one Tamahere couple.

Tui only returned to Tamahere for the first time in decades three years ago but like other appearances in Hamilton and the Waikato they were mostly flying visits to feed. The birds disappeared to outlying bush to breed.

So, local couple Arnold and Raewyn Koppens were rapt to find a tui nest in a totara just 15m from their front door in recent weeks and have closely followed the rapid progress of four chicks.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Christmas day may be bearing down on us like a runaway reindeer but there is still time to make a scrumptious, traditional Christmas cake.

Forget the notion that the fruity, grog-laden cake has to be made well in advance to let the flavours merge. And forget, too, that it has to be baked in a tin.

Both have been disproved by food lover and writer Annette Taylor of our sister community website, Number 8 Network. The recipe she shares proves winning even on <em>the </em>day.]]></description>

Objections to the revised property valuations need to be lodged with the Waikato District Council, in writing, by Friday, December 23.</strong>

Waikato district property owners and ratepayers received notice of revised values in November, many of them finding values were down for their homes, land or subdivided blocks. The valuations can be challenged.]]></description>
