Re-wilding the New Town Rivulet
As always, we collected a lot of rubbish but we all think it’s been less and less each time we’re there. Feedback has been given by the local community that the area has remained mostly rubbish free since the group started their work.
We also prepped our site for the next stage (planting), removing plenty of poplar and willow saplings as well as the odd blackberry. An amazing morning tea filled with fresh baked bread, scones and cakes was supplied by the volunteers to nourish the team on a cold winters day. We are looking forward to out upcoming planting day on August 10th 2025.
Thank you to Ash Carden and the Glenorchy City Council for supporting this activity and providing tools and knowledge.
