Guardian of Sherwood Forest Recognised

Environment Southland recognised the stirling effort by Pat Turnbull in her continued stewardship of the nationally significant matai forest remnant on her property with the Individual Award at this year’s ES Environment Awards. Since the death of her husband, Derek, in 2007, Pat’s continued enthusiasm for the BCF restoration work being undertaken at Sherwood Forest and her encouragement of many Southland groups to visit and become involved in that work was acknowledged by the ES judges.
