Brooklyn community orchard working bee, 19 June

Submitted by sablyth on 11 June 2011 - 12:44pm | Event

Every second Sunday in winter, we are running working bees. At the working bees we'll be keeping the grass in check,  weeding, feeding plants and general maintenance of the orchard.

Please bring along tools that you've got.

Come along! It's fun plus you'll do a bit of hard work. We would welcome you for any time you would be able to spare.

Upcoming working bees after this one are on Sundays: 3, 17 and 31 July.

Location / Venue: 
Harrison Street, Brooklyn, Wellington
