Community Planting Day - Bushglen & Malters Reserve
📍 Bushglen Reserve, Browns Bay - 36 Helvetia Drive
🗓️ Sunday 31st May | 10am – 1pm
Join us for a community planting day at Bushglen Reserve and Malters Reserve. We will be planting native trees, shrubs, and grasses that will help regenerate this unique space.
Bushglen Reserve is an ecological gem, home to the rare swamp maire (Syzygium maire) and many other mature native trees. Saved from development nearly 30 years ago, the reserve continues to thrive thanks to a dedicated volunteer group that works to clear invasive weeds and support the survival of these special species — including those affected by myrtle rust. Also a great opportunity to see the recent upgrades to the tracks and boardwalks at Bushglen if you haven't visited in a while.
This is a fantastic opportunity to explore and connect with your local ngahere (bush), while doing something great for the environment.
🧤 What to bring:
Gardening gloves
A clean spade (if you have one — we’ll have extras too)
Water bottle & snacks
Sturdy footwear (boots or closed shoes)
Dress for the weather
This is a family-friendly event — everyone is welcome! Bring your whānau, neighbours and friends and help us with our planting day at one of Auckland’s most special native bush reserves. 💚
