Four year restoration of Cashmere Stream completed
Local landowners and community members armed themselves with spades and smiles to help the Cashmere Stream Care Group complete the final stage of a four-year restoration and enhancement planting project.
Around 2500 natives have been planted in the headwaters of Cashmere Stream.
Fencing and plantings will protect the banks of the spring-fed stream against erosion and keep the water temperature cooler for the tuna/eels and bullies in the stream.
The shade provided by the plants will help decrease weed species in the stream and the habitat will be more suitable for kōura/freshwater crayfish, which have been spotted in the catchment.
More than $500,000 has been contributed to the project through labour and resource from Christchurch City Council.
