We're pleased to announce that our fourth and final planting day on September 28th is now open for registrations!
We had such a good time at the August planting day that we couldn't say no to one more - this time it really is our final planting day for the 2024 season, so make sure to RSVP sooner rather than later so you don’t miss out!
These days are a great way to contribute to the restoration of Motutapu as a sanctuary for taonga species. All ages are welcome (though please note, if you bring your children, you take full responsibility for their supervision) and no experience is required - and as always, transport on the Explore boats and lunch are on us.
Pick ups will be from the Viaduct (approx. 8.30am) and Stanley Point (approx. 8.45am), with the return trip departing from Motutapu at 4.00pm.
