1:20 Citizen Crime-Fighters?
In recent weeks the media has been littered with stories about community crime fighting. There's been much debate about who can best make our streets safer – triads, vigilantes, community police – anyone but the police, it would seem. Community Patrols of New Zealand are a national volunteer organisation who work in conjunction with the police. Spokesman Robert Fowler will join us to talk about the issue the way his organisation sees it.
1:40 The Green Desk
It's potato planting time! Sustainable Simon and bFM gardener Paul Thompson will be looking at heritage potato varieties and why it's important to try and grow some of our own food.
