Our ANZ Love Your Water Planting Series 2022 event in Ōtautahi Christchurch was tree-mendous!
It was the first planting event of the season down by the Waimakariri River and along with our collaborators Environment, we were eager to see the Regional Park visited by some new faces.
On a crisp Winter’s morning, 22 eager volunteers picked up shovels and tirelessly put 824 trees in the ground. This was a huge effort, averaging 37 trees per person.
Mingimingi (Coprosma propinqua) and Harakeke (Phormium tenax) led the way as the most abundant species planted followed by 16 other trees native to Aotearoa New Zealand. A bounty of biodiversity!
With some warm pumpkin soup courtesy of Pulp Kitchen Catering and refreshing drinks by Phoenix in their bellies, we bid the volunteers goodbye for now with the seedlings nestling into their new, earthy home.
