Green thumbs wanted
More than 1600 native plants went into the ground at Styx Mill Conservation Reserve last weekend.
Now, the second of Trees for Canterbury's community planting events will be held at the Charlesworth Street Reserve on Sunday, May 19.
Trees for Canterbury and the Christchurch City Council's regional parks team will help establish native trees and shrubs in the reserve.
The reserve is being developed to re-establish an estuary-edge ecosystem, including salt-meadow, salt-marsh and coastal bush that are currently very rare or non-existent in the area.
Community planting: Charlesworth Street Reserve, 10am to 2pm, Sunday, May 19.
Some Choice News!
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!
