Storm-hit Tararua farmers receive $120,000 in fencing packs from RRT
The Rapid Relief Team (RRT) has given farmers in the Tararua District a boost as they rebuild following recent storms.
Organised by the Rapid Relief Team (RRT), the charitable arm of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, eight trucks carrying the materials crossed Auckland Harbour Bridge in a convoy last Wednesday morning on their way to Wellsford.
RRT NZ director Danny Blampied says they have already given away more than $1.4 million worth of fencing materials to over 1,000 farmers.
"These events are a great way for the community to turn up and let farmers and their families know how valued they are in their communities."
