BEAM Re-Vegetation / Tree Planting Day

BEAM members and friends are welcome to join Permacroft people for an informal tree-planting day on Sunday 9 June. We’ll be planting some sheoaks, bulloaks, red box, wattles and ti tree across a few different locations.

Bring:

• sturdy shoes. Boots (gumboots / hiking boots) recommended to keep out grass seeds.

• gardening gloves if you have them

• some food to contribute to a shared lunch

You may also like to bring a mattock (large or small). We have a couple and spades. We’ll try to get a few of the trees established in rockier escarpment areas (perhaps a job for a few hardy people), as well as in some closer and flatter locations where we already have stakes and the digging should be easier. (filling in gaps where earlier plantings didn’t cope with excess rain or heat).
