In partnership with Christchurch City Council, CVNZ are part of an exciting long term regeneration project along the Otakaro Avon River Corridor. This 'Green Spine' forms the core of the regeneration area and at 11km long it follows the river out to the Estuary, featuring swathes of restored native habitat, trails, community spaces, riverside landings and local information about the area. Over the past few years, Christchurch City Council staff, organisations and volunteers have planted tens of thousands of native plants in areas along the Green Spine. This year CVNZ volunteers are planting at four different sites along the river corridor, and Cedarwood Reserve is one of them.
We've got two community planting days at Cedarwood Reserve this planting season.
Community Planting Day 1: National Volunteer Week: Saturday 24 June - * Postponed to Sat July 1st
When: 1-4pm.
Community Planting Day 2: Saturday 22 July
When: 1-4pm
Parking is at the end of Orrick Crescent on Hulverstone Drive, look out for the CVNZ flag and drive through the gate.
