Nick August 10th, 2008
Hi,
STEPS has received requests from Wai Care and Metrowater to become involved in three weekend planting days alongside the new boardwalk (which some of you may have already seen). We’re hoping to put approximately 1500 plants in the ground each weekend.
We’d love it if you could come along and join in – and bring your friends!
The details for the first of these planting days are as follows:
Date: Saturday August 16
Time: 1pm (till about 4pm, plus tea break)
Place: Alberton Ave end of the Roy Clements Treeway [32 Alberton Ave]
***Please note that a talk will be given beforehand regarding the project, planting techniques, plant species and spacing, and the planting plan for the day, plus health and safety issues. Therefore, please plan to be on site by 1pm***
All volunteers need to bring: SPADE, GARDENING GLOVES, WARM CLOTHES, SUITABLE WORK BOOTS/SHOES OR GUMBOOTS, WET WEATHER GEAR (COATS), PERSONAL MEDICATION IF NECESSARY (eg EPIPENS), A COLD DRINK, AND A SNACK IF SPECIAL DIETARY NEEDS.
