The Goods:

• When: Thursday 18 September 2025, 9–11am
• Where: Tairāwhiti Environment Centre
• Who for: Landowners, catchment and community groups, schools, iwi and hapū taiao groups, backyard trappers

What to Expect:

• Practical advice and the latest national insights on pest control

• Kai provided and a special guest performance
• Time to connect with others working on the ground in Tairāwhiti
