Help keep Beach Haven & Birkdale pest plant free - join us 9.30am Monday 7 December at the Cresta Ave Car Park
Hi - do you live in the area around Cresta Ave and Shepherds Park? Could you help local volunteers control pest plants which are bad for your health and for our environment?
Please check your section - particularly along the boundary - and your street for these weeds. They will soon be seeding - it's quickest and most effective to control them now before they spread more widely around our homes and parks.
Take this opportunity to talk with your neighbours to get on top of these pest plants. For more information about how you can tackle weeds on your property or street, go to this website: www.pestfreekaipatiki.org.nz...
If you see these weeds and can't deal with them, please send details of the street address and location to PestPlants@pestfreekaipatiki.org.nz - if possible please talk to the land owner or occupant and give us their contact details.
And if you are free on Monday morning, please come along and join us - we'd love to work with you to help make your neighbourhood more eco-friendly and beautiful.
Most of our volunteers will be working hi-vis jackets with "Pest Free Kaipatiki" on the back. But if you have any questions about what our volunteers are doing, please phone 021-240-9414.
And don't forget if you want to control rats and possums, see the page www.pestfreekaipatiki.org.nz...

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!
