Pest Free Hibiscus Boating Event - 29th Feb

Jenny from Gulf Harbour

We invite all boat owners on the Hibiscus Coast to come along on Saturday 29th February and find out how you can help to protect wildlife both at home and on pest free islands.

Drop in any time 8.30am-10.30am to the Yacht Club / boat ramp area.

Get a free rat trap to take home and join the Pest Free Hibiscus Coast Project, and enjoy a sausage sizzle for brekkie before heading out on your boat!

The event is brought to you by Hibiscus Coast Forest and Bird, in partnership with Gulf Harbour Marina, Gulf Harbour Yacht Club and Auckland Council.

This event is also to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park, and Seaweek 2020.

No charge but koha welcome.

We want to hear from you: would you be keen to switch to a fortnightly rubbish collection, or do you prefer things as they are?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
