Waiwhakareke - Releasing Day

Releasing days are held when we need to release the weeds from the young trees to stop them from becoming overwhelmed. Releasing involves both clearing tall weeds from the base of the plant and stomping them down around the plant. It is great fun and helps us to ensure that the trees we plant grow into giants.

We will meet at 9 am in the carpark opposite the Zoo on Brymer road and walk down to this year’s Arbor Day planting. Please register to attend, due to level 2 restrictions we are limited to 30 participants. You will need long trousers a jacket, covered shoes or gumboots and gloves.

Wear a Facemask and keep at least 2 m distance from other people
Sign in on the attendance register on the day.
Scan the COVID tracer code at the entrance.
Please do not attend if you are unwell.
