Get Involved: Calling All Volunteers
🌱 Manawa Karioi Winter Working Bees 🌱
Join us to care for our ngahere and reconnect with the whenua 🌿
Every Sunday in June and August, 1pm–3pm (except June 1)
📍 Meet at the Tapu Te Ranga Marae Carpark – end of Danube Street, Island Bay, Wellington
Important Notes:
Sunday 1 June – No Working Bee (King’s Birthday Weekend – public holiday)
Sunday 29 June – Bird Survey Special!
This Working Bee falls during the NZ Garden Bird Survey. You’ll have the chance to contribute by spending an hour observing and recording birds across Manawa Karioi. A great way to support bird conservation in Aotearoa – we’ll provide instructions and recording sheets.
🌧 Rain or shine – we’ll be out there planting, maintaining tracks, and enjoying the ngahere.
🧤 Tools, gloves, and good vibes provided – just bring yourself (and a friend!).

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael
