Opaketai Beach Haven Gardening Day this Sat 5th Sept 9.00am

Lisbeth Alley from Beach Haven Birkdale Residents Assn Inc

HI Everyone,
This coming Saturday 5th September from 9.00am to 12.00pm, Beach Haven Placemaking Group and the BH Residents Association will be working in Opaketai Beach Haven Garden spreading mulch donated by Treescape. We will also spread the mulch in the Rangatira Road- Beach Haven School Walkway garden as well.
This is vital work to enable the gardens to survive over summer with minimal (if any) watering – especially crucial if we get another drought this summer. We would love your help if you can make it - please bring a wheelbarrow or buckets and a shovel/spade, etc.

We will be maintaining social distancing as much as possible so a mask and hand sanitister, etc would also be a good idea 

See you there, Lisbeth
Beach Haven Placemaking Group and BH Birkdale Residents Association

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!
