Make a difference on a stunning stretch of the Matakana River.πŸŒΏπŸ’¦
The sheep are no longer able to access the awa and now, Friends of Awa Matakanakana need your help to get a few thousand plants into the ground. This planting site directly impacts the catchment, located three kilometres upstream from Matakana Village.
Give us a hand. Please wear sturdy CLEAN closed-in shoes, boots or gumboots πŸ₯Ύand bring:
* The kids - it's a family-friendly morning πŸ§’πŸ‘§
* Clean garden gloves 🧀
* Clean spades (there will be some available) πŸͺ
* Water 🍢
* Hat 🧒
* Raincoat and appropriate clothing for the weather.
We will be planting no matter what the weather does.
There will be a sausage sizzle when the mahi is completed, with vegan options available. Yummo!
