This Conservation Week, we’re celebrating by taking action for nature right here in our community.

Come join us for a morning of tree planting at the Ōhope Spit, where your mahi will help restore important coastal habitat and provided food and shelter for our native manu and ngāngara. 

Details: 

Ōhope Spit (end of Harbour Rd, past the Golf Course)

Saturday 6 September

9:30am - 1:00pm

What to bring:

• Sturdy shoes or gumboots
• Gardening gloves
• Water bottles
• Sunhat & sunscreen

We’ll provide the plants, spades and a sausage sizzle to refuel afterwards.

Whether you’re a seasoned volunteer or new to planting, this is a fun, hands-on way to connect with the whenua, give back to nature, and be a part of Conservation Week 2025. 

RSVP so we know how many people to expect.
