PLANTING BEE REMINDER: HAMMOND BUSH
Please join us on Saturday 28 May for a tree-planting session in Hammond Bush. This is the most fun part of bush restoration! It gives instant, rewarding change.
When: Sat 28 May 1-3 pm
Where: Meet at the Malcolm St end of the boardwalk in Hammond Bush
Bring: a spade, gardening gloves, gumboots if possible, layers of clothing, a raincoat.
RSVP: by Friday 27 May (so we know how many plant to supply)
The event will take place rain or shine (except in the event of a severe weather warning).
This is not ideal for children because the new plantings are quite spread out, and many of them will be in places that are steep or boggy. However, next month (Sat 25th of June) we will plant in more child-friendly areas, and it is a great family thing to do.
WAIKATO BOTANICAL TRIP CHANGED TO SUNDAY
If you are considering joining us on the Ed Hillary Hope Reserve trip this Saturday, the weather forecast is not promising for Saturday morning, we may well postpone until Sunday, but will make the final decision and notify everyone using this email list on Friday.
