SUMMARY:Fence masterclass: A guided tour with a fencing guru
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to get fencing right from fencing guru John Knoakes. Also learn about new fencing technologies from Ken McMiken from Gallagher. \nThe MCC would like to invite all rural landowners\, residents\, farmers and others interested in fencing to a guided tour around John Noakes’ farm to show you the various types of fencing to protect your environmental restoration work and native bush areas (including QEII lots)\, waterways\, including riparian areas and wetlands\, along with just general fencing tips for your rural property. \nJohn Knoakes is a fencing contractor with tons of experience. He was recently awarded the “legends” award at the Annual Fencing Contractors Association of New Zealand industry awards. \nThe very knowledgeable and practical John Noakes will talk you through the pros and cons and must haves for different fencing functions\, as well as gates. He’ll also give you a demonstration of all the equipment you’ll need\, how to erect and operate electric fencing\, and give you pointers around fencing maintenance. \nMotueka catchment residents will also have the opportunity to apply for free fenceposts through Repost. MCC will be be requesting applications shortly. \nTo register\, go here. \nHere are some photos from last year’s MCC fencing event which was a great success.
