Swanns Road Parklet Working Bee Part 2

Sep 6, 2023 | Active Richmond, Educate Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

 
Volunteers from Conservation Volunteers New Zealand Richmond Community Garden We are Richmond, along with the CCC Red Zone Rangers came to help plant out the Swanns Rd Parklet to be an amazing learning garden and forest in the future. Rob Cruickshank from the University of Canterbury also came to record the invertebrate wildlife (bugs!) and teach us about them, and will continue to monitor their changes with all of these new plants growing.
 
It’s hard to see at eye level when you are at the corner of Swanns Rd and River Rd…walk up to the signposts and have a look!!!
