Stream care day
The Whau River Catchment Trust is a community-led, non-profit environmental group working to restore and protect the natural spaces across our catchment, with the help of our amazing West Auckland community.
About the role:
We'd love for you to join us for a community weeding bee at Blockhouse Bay Recreation Reserve on Sunday morning, 29th November! Together, we'll be rolling up our sleeves and removing invasive arum lilies from along the stream bank. This will help improve the health of the floodplain and create space for native plants to naturally regenerate. Whether you're a seasoned volunteer or keen to give it a go for the first time, everyone is welcome.
Every helping hand makes a difference, and we'd love to have you involved.
- You must bring sturdy, closed-in shoes with good grip
- A drink bottle
- Sunblock
- Sunhat
- Volunteers must be aged 12 or over
The work is quite physical, as the arum lilies have to be dug out by spade, so you must be reasonably fit.
9:30am - 12:00pm, on Sunday 29 November
