Bowenvale Park is a large park on the Port Hills and runs from the base of the Port Hills in Cashmere up to the Summit Road. It is the access to a popular mountain biking area in Victoria Park, and has several walking and running trails.
There are key areas that have been planted in the Park over the past few years, notably in harakeke (flaxes) in the upper valley and smaller native plants and shrubs in the lower valley. The plantings in the lower valley have been done by students from Ara, a local polytechnic.
Our role is to help release these plantings from weeds and grass and help them to get established.
Come for part or all of the day and join our international volunteers! Tools and gloves supplied. Bring drinking water, lunch and snacks, and wear sturdy footwear.
Note: we can provide transport, but spaces are limited, so get in touch to book your seat!
