If you haven't registered but are planning on coming along then it's not too late to register at www.livinglegends.co.nz.  We have 3000 native trees to plant on the day. If you know anyone else who might be interested in helping us to plant some trees, forward this email to them. We'd love to see as many people there as possible! 식목 장소: The planting is at the Kaituna Wetland,  Pah Road, near Te Puke just outside of Tauranga.   It would be great if you could arrive on site between 8.45 and 9.00 am.  We're aiming to be done by midday. However, if there are still plants to get in the ground, feel free to stay around for the afternoon to help us out.   Your Legend is Hika Reid - check out Hika's biography here.  Hopefully Hika will be joining us on the day.   You need to bring:  (준비물) - gumboots or good strong work boots, this can be a very wet site! - a spade, which should be marked with your name - wet weather gear/sunscreen - gardening gloves - if you don't want to get your hands dirty! - water - picnic lunch, although a sausage sizzle will be provided   Parking is on Kaituna Road along the edge of the wetland.  Please park sensibly on the left hand side of the road.   Please ensure that children are supervised at all times.   Rubbish bins will be provided but it would be appreciated if you could arrange to take your own rubbish home with you.   Sorry, no dogs allowed on the site.

About the Kaituna Wetland site The Kaituna wetland is a very significant conservation initiative in the Bay of Plenty with wide community support. It’s a wonderful reminder of how things once were.   Cabbage trees and flaxes are flourishing, pukeko prowl through the raupo, numerous ducks, shags and pied stilts forage for food in the waterways.   The inclusion of this important wetland in the Living Legends projects recognises the threatened nature of these ecosystems. Local schools and the wider community have been involved in planting of defined areas and a kayak trail has been established.   In October 2011, volunteers planted 3000 native trees at this site as part of Living Legends programme of work and this August we have a further 3000 additional native trees and shrubs to plant.
