  • OUR LATEST LOCAL STORY

    Threads of The Yard

    In this story, guest writer Tyrone Biddle from P&P Flooring takes us inside The Yard at 153 Pukepoto Road in Kaitāia, where local businesses work side by side, support one another, and carry the stories of whānau and community.


    You’ll learn about the whānau behind Drop In, a surf and coffee shop shaped by the tides and their connection to the moana, and Steve from Northstitch Upholstery, whose craft brings new life to everything from tarpaulins to custom furniture.


    Together, these threads form a community that celebrates resilience, creativity, and connection.
