Planting Morning Along the Heathcote
Next Saturday morning (8th) join the Laura Kent Reserve Workgroup to plant 1000 native plants in the reserve beside the Heathcote River (between Radley St bridge and Radley Park on the Port Hills side of the river). Kick off at 9.00am finish by 11.00am. Some spades supplied. Enter the reserve from Radley St and walk through the new planting already done (250m), or from Laura Kent Place. We are glad we aren't planting this weekend!!
