Gore Forest Restoration Project - Plantings

14 – 16 May 2024

Lead by Gore District Council, who have been working with local schools for several years now, this year’s autumn plantings will happen mid-May. On Tuesday 14th May, St Marys School will be planting in the morning, then West Gore School in the afternoon. Also on Tuesday, Southland Forest & Bird will be doing a memorial planting of threatened plant species near the Lamont memorial seat, by the track along the Waikaka Stream. On Wednesday 15th the Gore Main School will be planting in the afternoon, and on Thursday 16th East Gore School will be planting in the morning. If you are able to come along at any time to help with these plantings, we would be pleased to have you join us. Or just come along to check out how the forest is growing!
