Te Kākano’s mission is to inspire native habitat restoration through propagation, education, and participation. Every year, they grow and plant thousands of native seedlings, accelerating native revegetation efforts throughout the Upper Clutha.
Tasks at these volunteer sessions vary depending on the season. They include propagation of native plants, nurturing the young plants growing at the nursery, transplanting plants, watering, preparing the planting sessions, etc. No specific skills or experience required as the sessions are guided by our Nursery Manager.
Venus coffee, tea and snacks will be provided for all volunteers and you also get the chance to soak in the views on the deck.
Summer sessions:
Tuesday evenings, 5.30-7.30pm
Wednesday mornings, 9am-12pm
Access to the nursery is through the QEII Reserve, either through the gate or over the nursery stile. You will find some directions here to come to the nursery.
