Annual Native Tree Planting Day - 8:30am Sunday, 16th June
Our branch is holding our Annual Planting at 8:30am Sunday, 16th June.
We will be planting out a section of the Irongate Stream which feeds into the Karamu Stream. This project is being done in conjunction with Hawkes Bay Regional Council and forms part of a wider strategy to connect the mountains to the sea and provide pathways for our native birds and animals to travel across the region.
The address is 30 Longlands Road East, Hastings.
If you would like to come long and help please register by emailing us at HastingsHavelockNorth.Branch@forestandbird.org.nz.
