Happy to have multiple Timebankers over several days carrying out this work (you don't have to do all of it!). Let me know what you're able to do, standing to seed into trays, or cultivating with tools or hand weeding, lots of options.

If there are iron sheets or pallet wood lying around the yard you want to get rid of or don't need, I'm happy to take them off your hands. Uneven size and rust on the iron sheets are fine. DIY advice on how to hammer and nail together will be much appreciated. All tools provided!

I have a large property just north of Waipapa where we have the PHA Wellness Hub and my home. I'd love some help getting on top of the weeds and growth. I also need to do some mulching, or perhaps you have a better idea to suppress weeds. Please get in touch if you're able to assist.

I'm after a little help in the garden at home please! There's always something to do, I've got established orchards and herbs, raised vege beds, a glasshouse with seedlings on a 17 acre property.
After someone with a little strength for the heavy tasks I can't manage, and also knowledge about plants would be great. Helping with pruning and digging and tidying around the place.
Tuesdays and Thursdays in the mornings would be awesome, for a couple of hours. Please contact to discuss further.

Kia ora,
This is an ongoing, longer request for support establishing part of a wildlife corridor between the Pukenui and Otaika forests. We are regenerating bush on our property in Maunu, situated between the two reserves. Our priority is converting ~4 hectares of kikuyu-infested paddock into native bush. We've started planting ourselves, but we are going to need help.
The long-term plan is to get the property protected in perpetuity as a QEII trust to preserve as wildlife and native bush preserve. The first step is replacing the grass with native plantings.
What we are looking for to help make this happen:
*Plants - Particularly
pioneer species like manuka, kanuka, large harakeke, cabbage trees, Pittosporum crassifolium/karo, whau, red mapou, makomako, lacebark, mahoe, five finger, etc. Do you have a flat of manuka or kanuka seedlings? That can help! Splitting or removing a native? Send it our way! We also have shady marshy areas of paddock which need reforesting.
*Mulch - We'll need heaps of mulch to protect our new plantings. Do you know where to get some? Will you have some? Can you dump some here? Unfortunately we don't have a truck for pickup.
*Planting - Assuming we can get the requisite plants and mulch, we'll need help getting them in the ground. This is primarily a wintertime activity.
*Money? - We've reached out to lots of departments and organizations about grants and funds to get any plants or mulch. Almost everyone is tapped out, or waiting until they get new guidelines for funding next year. We've signed up for notifications for a lot. We've also put in inquiries with private companies that share costs. Another option is crowd-funding through the community, but we're not currently pursuing that until we've run through the other choices.
Thank you,
J & E
