Ten-year-old Xavier Lynch, from Havelock North, came back with a business and fundraising idea.
In 2017, Lynch and his family visited Fiji where they stayed at the Happy Chicken Project permaculture farm. I learned that they help the communities in the Fijian Islands to sustain an alternative food source while the reefs are closed to repopulate the fish.
