Plant 2000 Trees at Uretiti
9am 30 July at Uretiti Campground Entrance
Sausage sizzle and morning tea provided!
The Bream Bay Coastal Care Trust invites you to come along with spades and help plant the first 2000 trees as part of the Living Legends native tree planting.
The Trust was concerned that it would be difficult to keep 5000 trees alive over a dry summer if all the trees were planted iin September to coincide with the Rugby World Cup, so has offered to plant 2000 trees in July. The Tindall Foundation is sponsoring 17 projects throughout NZ planting 10,000 trees at each site. 5,000 at Uretiti this year, and 5,000 over the next five years.
A highly publicised planting day will be held during the Rugby World Cup on 18 September with people throughout the Whangarei District and perhaps some local rugby legends helping to get the trees in the ground.
