CONSERVATION WEEK NEXT WEEK


Kia ora All
Just a reminder that next week is ‘Conservation Week’ , theme this year is ‘Love My Backyard’ so please take the time to do a little or a lot in your backyard or the city, every bit helps.

I’ve listed some of the projects we have at Hamilton City Council , ‘Community Planting programme’ events.

Here are the links for projects I have  listed to date……





If you, or anyone you know  have a project that you would like to list please follow the links through the Department of Conservation website;
Note: apparently can take couple of days to list events through ‘Eventfinda’ as need to be validated by website administrators.
