Petrie Park Plant and Tidy June Session

Jun 16, 2026 | Active Richmond, Educate Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

Look at this fantastic community mahi! So many volunteers tidied up and planted some fruit trees in Petrie Park! Hard work, but there were lots of laughs, dogs, kai and time together. Thank you to Avon-Ōtākaro Network for the use of the trailer.
 
We’ll be running these every 2-3 months as the seasons change.
 
Thank you to all of your help and hope to see everyone else at the next session in August.
