🌱 There once was a patch full of w**ds,
But now humans have tended its needs.
Plants are in there at last,
And tūī will fly past,
To feast on the berries and seeds.

Thanks everyone that came along today to plant 120 plants at Shepherds Park and lay the rest of the matting. Fantastic job. Can't wait to see the the full transformation of this spot. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

There once was a patch full of w**ds,
Now humans are tending its needs.
Come August we’ll plant,
For tūī who can’t
Resist all the berries and seeds.

🌱Great working bee today preparing this area for planting on 16 August. Thanks to those that could come along. We'll be back to finish the job but we'll need some more w**d matting.👍
