Planting Days
Over the weekend, there were two planting days organised by Trees For Canterbury and Christchurch City Council.
Both the Halswell Quarry planting day as well as the Charlesworth Street Reserve Community Planting & Gala Day were a success.
Members of the public gathered on Saturday 20 May at Halswell Quarry wetland planting to restore the native wetland swales into the park.
On Sunday, a second planting day was held at Charlesworth Street Reserve on to establish native trees and shrubs, supplied by Trees For Canterbury and the Christchurch City Council’s Regional Parks Team .
Charlesworth Reserve is being gradually developed to re-establish estuary-edge ecosystem features such as salt-meadow, salt-marsh and coastal bush that are now either very rare around the estuary or non-existent”.
Support for the project, so far, has come from Trees for Canterbury, Christchurch City Council, and the Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust.
