Flaxmere community pantry feeds families in festive spirit

One of Hawke's Bay's poorest communities is showing it is rich in festive spirit as it prepares to feed hundreds of people from all over the region this Christmas. Flaxmere's Pataka Kai, or community food pantry, has been a roaring success since it opened earlier this year, and on Christmas Eve it will host a party to provide presents and food to hundreds of people. Our Hawke's Bay reporter, Anusha Bradley, has been checking out the preparations.
