Have you seen pest plants and pest animals in your garden?
Our urban environment is an important habitat for birds, insects, and reptiles – they can only thrive if pest numbers are low.
We need local volunteers to help trap pest animals and remove pest plants in your garden. We warmly invite you to participate in our FREE Chinese Community Engagement Workshop where you will learn about NZ native flora and fauna, our unique ecosystem, and conservation skills in your garden!
Date: every last Wednesday of the month (subject to confirmation)
Time: 10AM - 12PM
Join our WeChat Group for updated information by emailing Nigel at nigel.pestfreehowick@gmail.com or adding his WeChat ID: Nigel-70s.
