Food Forest Maintenance
Our collaborative group, Friends of Molley Green Reserve, invites you to participate in the food forest maintenance at Mount Roskill's Molley Green Reserve.
A Forest of Food for Everyone, created by the locals to work collectively to cultivate kai, share knowledge, skills, stories and recipes in the Eco-neighbourhoods.
Much maintenance work is needed to make the food garden sustainable for the community to have greater access to healthy food. You will be volunteering in weeding, seed raising, mulching, composting, planting and more.
For this volunteer day, you are welcome to meet us onsite or meet at our office at 1:45pm at 10 New North Rd Eden Terrace to get a ride in our van. Seats are limited in our vans, so you MUST contact Teresa at tma@cvnz.org.nz or text 021 496 890 to reserve a seat. For those meeting onsite, please meet our team at 2:30pm.
What to wear: Please wear sturdy, comfortable footwear and something you don’t mind getting muddy (gumboots, hiking shoes, work boots, trainers) and appropriate outdoor clothing (lightweight long sleeved clothing and trousers are needed to protect yourself from cuts and scratches and insect bites/stings).
What to bring: CVNZ will supply all of the tools and equipment required for the day. Please bring with you a hat, raincoat/waterproof jacket, sunblock, a snack, full water bottle and any medication you may need (hayfever medication, inhalers etc). We will have extra water to refill bottles, sunblock, snacks and insect repellent with us on the day.
We look forward to seeing you there!
