Green Corridors Free Community Event Sunday 14th July 2019
Come along to our Community Event with sausage sizzle at 11am on Sunday 14th July 2019.
Meeting point: Pacific Drive entrance to Adderstone Reserve just past the IPU on the left hand side. Pacific Drive is off Aokautere Drive.
We will be planting eco-sourced native trees and grasses. If you would like to participate please bring a spade, gumboots and gardening gloves.
We will also be demonstrating traps that can be used in back yards and gullies towards the PNCC goal of a predator-free Summerhill and Aokautere. A list will be taken of residents in these areas who are interested in taking part in this project. Traps will be ordered and delivered at a later date.
Members of Green Corridors will be on hand to answer questions about our work of restoring native vegetation and eliminating weeds in the Turitea, Summerhill and Aokautere areas of Palmerston North.

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!
Tacking the bamboo-like pest in the Manawatū
🌱 A new national scheme led by Biosecurity New Zealand is tackling an invasive weed that’s threatening wetlands, waterways, and forests in and around Manawatū, reports the Manawatū Standard.
💬 Our question to you: Do we sometimes overlook plants when investing in conservation?
Have you spotted this weed in your area, or noticed other local efforts to protect our native flora?
