Is that sun on the weekend forecast? Yes it is!

We are expecting perfect planting conditions for tomorrow's community planting at Bothamley Park and we would love for you to join us.

Come on down from 10am-12.30pm on Saturday 18 July and celebrate Matariki with restoration, reflection and connection.

There will be 1800 plants for planting, tools available for picking up litter, the chance to connect with community organisations, and a free barbecue for those putting in the hard mahi.
