Stunning morning planting trees with local Rakiura residents – we actually had 10% of the total population join us! Huge thanks to our event partner, Stewart Island / Rakiura Community Environment Trust and event sponsors Phoenix Drinks, WWF New Zealand, Real Journeys and Stewart Island Four Square. Looking forward to seeing you all again next year!
As part of our 2017 Love Your Water project we invite you to join us on Saturday 5 August for a day of tree planting and weeding alongside Elgin Terrace in Halfmoon Bay, Stewart Island. The Stewart Island / Rakiura Community Environment Trust do amazing work on the island, and are lovingly overlooking its restoration, so we want to help them give some love to this special area.
Huge thanks to Real Journeysfor giving the Sustainable Coastline’s employees free passage to the Island to run our programme!
We’ll meet from 11.00am – look out for the blue Sustainable Coastlines along Elgin Terrace. We’ll be starting from 11.15am and finishing up around 1.30pm. You can stay for as little or as long as you like, but afterwards we’ll all come together for a some tasty food and some Phoenix Organics Drinks. To participate, please take a few seconds to sign up via our quick registration form.
If you’re coming from the mainland, catch the 9.45am ferry to Oban – the planting is within walking distance from the ferry terminal – just head around the coast to the south and you’ll find us. We’ll be all done in time for the 3pm ferry – so why not make a day or weekend of it out on Stewart Island?! More ferry information can be found here.
