Every Third Sunday of the month we have our group working bee – in summer we focus on taking care of our plants (“search and rescue”) and in winter we plant. We also have the “motor” of our project: our plant nursery! All our working bees are accessible for all ages, we can always find something appropriate for your age and fitness level – our youngest visiting volunteer was just 6 months old while our eldest volunteer is 92 and counting. That’s the benefit of our project: being in a wetland it’s flat and with our nursery, there is always something to do without having to bend over. But if you’re looking for a work out, we can certainly provide you with that as well!

If you haven’t been before, please REGISTER HERE.

No need to bring your own gloves and spades, but if you do: everything needs to be squeaky clean because of kauri dieback

Start time 10 am, finishing with a shared lunch – we provide hot drinks and soup or salad (depending on the weather), bring something to share if you can. 

Ample parking on site, we’re at 111 Bethells Road – entry opposite the Waitakere River Fire station. Please contact me if you’re planning to come with a bigger group or have other questions: Annalily at hello@matukulink.org.nz or 0212207136.

Hope to see you there! – Annalily & the trusteesÂ
