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.
POTTING MIX QUALITY
If, like me, you are an experienced and avid gardener you know how frustrating it is when those beautiful seedlings recently purchased fail to thrive. Have you ever considered it may not be your fault, you've done all the right things but it may be the new bag of potting mix you bought to plant them in . Have you ever complained to the garden centre? My recent experience showed the blatantly obvious difference between brands. The recently purchased product was nothing more than raw compost, whereas the previous product was a good mix and made the plants thrive. I was the only one to complain, there could not possibly be a problem with the product as they sell pallet loads of it........ Your comments would be appreciated.

Tracy Watkins has weighed in ... now it’s your turn. What’s your take? 🤔

Electrician needed
Hi. Does anyone know of a good electrician who does not charge the earth. We need a security light disconnected and blocked off.
Thanks
