Following a very successful first planting for the year, our next volunteer planting is scheduled for Saturday 21st June. We will be planting in the area behind Taranui Way (off Kotuku Drive). Access to the planting site will be through a residential property (details to follow). To avoid traffic congestion could you please park in Kotuku Drive. Planting will commence at 9.00am, and tools and gloves will be provided. We will finish planting at 10.45am and enjoy a well-earned morning tea. We look forward to your support. Feel free to bring a friend, and encourage others to join us.
