Lower Meola Creek Planting Day -> 20 July, 10.30am onward

July 14th, 2013

This year, the Albert Eden Local Board offered to fund the restoration of a site in lower Meola near the Moa Reserve in Point Chevalier. STEPS successfully applied for the funding, and will be working with a team run by Katherine Read of Wai Care, including Te Ngahere and local people, to carry out the planting and weed control.

Initially, we have arranged for a joint planting day, and are hoping for a good turnout of STEPS members and supporters to support this initiative downstream from our usual area of focus.

The details are below – hope to see you there
