Environment Reserve Maintenance - Project Twin Streams
We are looking for volunteers to help us to maintain 3 reserves based in Waitakere Ranui. There is a range of tasks such as nursery maintenance, planting and re-potting. Planting natives in the reserves during the Matariki planting season. There is mulching, weeding, picking up rubbish, and from time to time water monitoring. Our aim is to restore the environment by planting more trees and weeding in these reserves that run along streamside, and maintain these areas for public use.
Volunteers will be supervised and supported by our Environment Navigator. We run through health and safety for each group and all equipment is provided, including boots, spades and gloves.
