May • OLGs Bushy Point, Otatara

OLG celebrate 10,000 hours of work!

Since the Otatara Landcare Group began the Bushy Point restoration project in 2000, many voluntary hours have gone in to plant propagation, planting, maintenance, weed control, predator control, along with running events and producing newsletters to promote the wonderful natural values of the area. This weekend the OLG celebrates this achievement with a gathering at the Otatara Community Centre. Congratulations to everyone who helped to reach this major milestone, bringing that vision of joining the two forest remnants with a corridor of natives and enhancing birdlife in the area, to fruition.
