Wicked Weeders 23rd July

Hi all, I hope everyone is well. Those that were away with school holidays, hopefully, you got in some adventures, enjoyed the sunshine and dodged the rain.🌦️

Tomorrow (Tuesday) for Wicked Weeders we are going to head to Wairakei Drive and get into the planting site that runs alongside the Wairakei Golf and Sanctuary Predator Fence. It was planted in May 2020, and it has grown well but it has a bit of broom growing throughout. As tomorrow looks like a good day, we can do some cutting and pasting🌿

Below are photos from 2020

We will bring along some loppers, grubbers, cut and paste and the afternoon tea 🍪

Dont forget your gloves, good footwear and a jacket as it could be a bit chilly out there.

The site is just past the entrance into the Wairakei Golf and Sanctuary heading north, opposite the intersection that takes you down to Shooters and GNS

There is plenty of room to park off the road onto the grass alongside the site. I’m not sure how high the curb is so take care.

We have a Contact planting on Sunday; there is no set-up required or need to return to check plants as Contact has ARCO to do this. You are all welcome to join in on Sunday if you wish.

See you all tomorrow
