Jenny Cations-Brown 23 Dec 2024 / Categories: National, South Island, North Canterbury "More Than Just A Farmer" Author: Doug Archbold More than just a farmer, Doug Archbold has been a life-saving safety net, clocking up more than 20 years involvement with the North Canterbury Rural Support Trust. His community involvement goes well beyond that, too, and covid saw the beginning of his writing career. This year he self-published his first "and most probably last" book from which he is donating all proceeds to Westpac Helicopter, Cheviot Museum and North Canterbury Rural Support Trust serving many years as chair and is currently our Trust Patron. There is much more to Doug's decades of farming and community involvement and it is all in the book. Priced at only $20 this is a "GREAT read". Contact dougarchbold@gmail.com to order the book.
