Meridian giving back to the park
Massive thanks to Meridian Energy for donating a days work in the park on 17 October.
Over 40 of their team cleared fence line for next year's big planting project (more on that later), maintained traps (both Makara Peak's and Capital Kiwi's), planted 50 seedlings, released previous year's seedlings from weeds, and built a temporary bridge to provide for wheelbarrow access to next year's remote planting site.
Not only did they manage all that, they also donated the gloves and tools they bought for the day to the park.
Awesome!
If you business or organisation would like to do a corporate volunteer day at Makara Peak, send us an email - we can tailor something to meet the needs of a variety of levels of fitness and capability.
Thanks to Paul, Jamie, Adam, Evan, Andrew and Simon for supporting the Meridian team to a very productive morning.
