Taking Back Reotahi

We meet every 4th Sunday of the month to control serious environmental weeds on the flanks of Mt Aubrey/Reotahi - Whangarei Heads. This maunga is treasured culturally, recreationally, and ecologically and we see it being invaded by weeds. We target wild ginger (easy to kill but there’s lots of it), moth plant, woolly nightshade, banana passionfruit, elaeagnus, and cotoneaster in particular. It’s not all hard work, and we stop for a chat over morning tea. Full training given for newcomers on plant ID and weed control methods. Personal protective equipment provided also.
