Recently one of our growers has moved and the small planting unit she looked after has now been moved on to the reserve in the cattle yards behind the container.
Until a permanent home is found for the plants, it is necessary to keep them watered and the Friends of Mangemangeroa need to establish a weekly volunteer roster for completing this task once a day over the drier weeks ahead.
So far we have two volunteers to cover Mondays and Fridays but if you have half an hour to spare on any other day of the week at a time suit to yourself we would be grateful if you would be able to help us keep the plants watered.
It is very easy as the water is on hand from the tank at the container and it is just a matter of refilling the watering can several times to complete the job. It is a small task that can be combined with a walk through the reserve if that is something you enjoy doing.
If you are able to help, could you please email Sally Barclay or myself, sallyannbarclay@gmail.com, debsgrant@outlook.co.nz or call Sally on 021 1743938.
We look forward to hearing from you if you are able to offer some assistance.
