Te Ara Awataha Event
06 June 2020
Community Regeneration Day at Jessie Tonar Scout Reserve.
Since March 2019, we have been clearing invasive plant species and made good progress with planting a number of native plants on the site. We’ve also discovered that the harakeke growing there is of a high quality. We’ll continue cleaning up harakeke stands as well as clearing the wild ginger onsite. Come down and give us a hand!
Things to bring:
- Suitable closed-toed footwear – gumboots or boots
- Clothing appropriate for the weather
- Reusable water bottle
- Sun protection
Please register to reserve your sausage sizzle, and let us know of any additional food requirements.

Design your Seasonal Calendar Workshop
21 June 2020
In viewing various examples of seasonal calendars, we start to see patterns which we can then choose to follow or formulise our own. Our gardens teach us to be adaptable, and a calendar provides us with prompts to be better prepared and avoid crop losses. Once in place, you will become more naturally aligned to the seasons and the common tasks for each one.
Registrations close on 19 June.
