On Sunday 12 October we are holding a working bee involving removing W**d species with handsaws, clearing dead branches and, most importantly, planting loads of native trees! We will be meeting outside 26 Jomac Place, Avondale, at 9:30am, and from there walking along a makeshift track to access our planting site. The terrain can be challenging, especially when the ground is muddy from rain, so make sure you're confident on your feet. It's a lovely spot, off the beaten track, with stunning views across the Mōtū Manawa-Pollen Island Marine Reserve. The work we'll be doing will help to restore the native coastal forest, providing a crucial buffer zone to help protect the reserve.Gloves, tools and light refreshments for morning tea will be provided.
You will need to bring sturdy, closed-in footwear (tramping shoes or gumboots are ideal); clothing suitable for working outdoors, including a raincoat; and a drink bottle and snacks.
You must be confident working on steep, uneven terrain.
All volunteers must be 14 or older.
No planting experience is necessary.
