Hibiscus Matters

Hibiscus Matters is a locally owned and operated fortnightly newspaper, servicing the area from Dairy Flat to Waiwera.

We distribute to mailboxes throughout the areas. Local Matters is about the people who live and work in the area, and the issues that affect our communities. We provide readers with up-to-date, relevant news and information, and we are proud of the fact that our articles are locally written and not just press release updates.

In our paper, you will find local news, letters, business, health & beauty, cuisine, fishing, sports, entertainment, leisure, arts, gardening, families, interiors, local history, local folk, classifieds and a What’s On calendar. Every year we also include special features focusing on winter and summer fashion, health & beauty, retirement, travel, weddings, on the water, home maintenance, gift guides, and more.
