Weed spraying
The Whau River Catchment Trust is a non-profit environmental group, delivering ecological restoration projects all across the catchment with the support of our amazing west Auckland community. We are looking for some keen volunteers who can help us out on site with weed spraying using a knapsack. Mainly we're aiming to tackle kikuyu and other low-lying weeds along our plantings, and to prepare new planting areas.
It is essential that you have a current Growsafe certificate.
We can be pretty flexible with time and day, and are happy to discuss to find a time that best suits you.
We can provide all spraying equipment and PPE, though if you have any of your own gear feel free to use that instead.
If this sounds like something you'd like to do, we'd love to hear from you!

A one-off job will take up to 2 hours. There will be lots of opportunities to volunteer throughout the year, and it's entirely up to you how many times you want to help out - even if it's just once.
